Description
Stand at Punthuk Setumbu to watch the sun rise from the hilltop. While the air is still fresh, take a tour to the largest Borobudur Temple in the world, and end at the magnificent Prambanan Temple.
Our journey will begin before sunrise. In Java, this is the best time to enjoy the fresh air, giving you peace of mind through the aroma of the fog that is starting to lift. You will be taken to Punthuk Setumbu to catch the amazing Borobudur sunrise.
From a distance, the sun will appear from behind the volcano to illuminate the green terraced rice fields. When the weather starts to warm up, take a tour to the largest Buddhist temple in the world, namely Borobudur Temple, which is the most important cultural heritage of the Indonesian nation.
After visiting Borobudur for several hours, you can stop for lunch because we will travel around 1.5 - 2 hours to Prambanan Temple. Here, you can spend 2 - 3 hours watching the beauty of the Prambanan Temple reliefs and their splendor.
The largest Hindu temple building in Indonesia was built in the 9th century AD. According to legend, Prambanan Temple is dedicated to the Trimurti, namely the three main gods, namely Brahma as the Creator God, Vishnu as the Preserver God and Shiva as the Destroyer God.
After you have finished exploring Prambanan, you can choose to return to the hotel or enjoy typical Java culinary delights on the way home.
