Talk about beautiful places i have ever visited is
Prambanan, Prambanan is 19th century Hindu temple compound in Central Java, connected with legend of Rara Jonggrang,
dedicated to Trimurti, Expression of God as creator (Brahmana), the Sustainer
Vishnu and destroyer Shiva, Located 18 kilometers, East of the city of
Yogyakarta , it’s one of wonders of the
world and the largest Hindu temple of
ancient Java before moeslem came to Indonesia.
Little Story about The Rara Jonggrang Legend, legend tells about Prince
Bandung Bondowoso who fell in love with Princess Rara Jonggrang the daughter of
king Boko, but Rara Jonggrang rejected him cause he had killed king Boko and
ruled the kingdom, Bondowoso insisted on the union and Rara Jonggrang was forced
to agree for it, but she gave one condition for bondowoso that he
must build a thousand temples in only one night. Bondowoso started to meditation
and have recourse from demons or multitude spirits, helped by the demons,
bondowoso succeeded building 999 temples, when he almost complete the
condition, princess woke the palace maids then she ordered woman in the village to
begin pounding rice and set some fire in east of the temple, meanwhile the
demons fled back into the ground, bondowoso was furious about the trick,
then he revenge and cursed Rara Jonggrang to stone, she became the last and the most beautiful statues.
There, we can see many temples standing in Prambanan about 240, but unfortunately on may 2006 temple was hit and
damaged by Earthquake. As you can see the
picture right behind me it still under repair and all visitors can’t take
picture closely from temple, we must keep a distance from it, but not it all,
we still allowed to take picture with other temple that has been repaired. For me prambanan is a part from indonesian history and beautiful wonders of the world.
