Prambanan Temple Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions

Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

Prambanan is a very magnificent Hindu temple in Indonesia. It has been damaged by many volcanoes and earthquakes. There are more than 50 temple ruins. Prambanan was built in the 8th to 10th centuries AD, about the same era as Angkor Wat in Cambodia, and has many similarities in architectural form and sculptural themes. The temple has three-story courtyards. Most of the buildings on the outer two floors are in ruins. Only the inner layer preserves several temples. The three magnificent main temples are dedicated to Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu, and the other three small temples are respectively. Enshrined in their mounts divine bull, divine goose and condor. Like Borobudur, Prambanan Temple is also built of volcanic rock, and the walls are covered with exquisite reliefs, but its content is mostly based on the Indian epic "Ramayana". Compared with Angkor Wat, although the same story is told, the artistic style and characters are quite different.

Indonesia's largest world heritage 9th century Indian temple "Planbanan" is the largest Buddhist temple "Borofotu" yesterday, which shocked me again. The tour guide interestingly said that this is Hinduism to fight the Buddhist "Borofotu" building specially built enough Bigger Hindu temples, but since the earthquake, there were more than 200 temples and now only eight are saucy. In Indonesian religion I have found three my favorite gods and beasts, which I have no experience in Thailand. Why? Because the gods (beasts) here are very round eyes and round bodies; but Thailand is thin and slender. Compared to me, I personally love the style here. What about you? #Temple can directly see the Java volcano 🌋
