Travel to the World's Oldest Temples (Borobudur)

in #travel8 years ago


Today is the right day for me to repeat my trip in 2013 when I was assigned to take martial arts team to visit the Borobudur temple in central Java capital of Semarang,

My task here is to guide the participants to get to the Borobudur temple, the access road to the temple Borobudur me that the boarding of Sultan Iskandar Muda Airport (Aceh) to the International airport of Adi Sumarno.

then headed the Borobudur temple using tour buses were indeed many provided around the airport adi Sumarno.

A brief history of the Borobudur temple, here I discuss it a little bit not too detailed, as the story of the legend of the community.

Borobudur temple is located in Borobudur, Magelang, Central Java, approximately 100 km southwest of Semarang, 86 km to the west of Surakarta, and 40 km northwest of Yogyakarta.

Naming Borobudur was first written in the book "The History of Java" by Sir Thomas Raffles. Bore-Budur name, which is then written Borobudur, probably written Raffles in English grammar to refer to the closest village to the temple, the village Bore (Boro); Raffles also suspect that the term 'Budur' might be related to the term Buda is a Javanese word that means "ancient" - it means "ancient Boro".

According to local legend Borobudur designer named Gunadharma, little is known about this mysterious architect. His name is based on the fairy tales and legends of Java and is not based on historical inscriptions. Gunadharma legends associated with the folklore of Menoreh hills that resembled a person's body lay. Local fairytale is told that the bodies were lying Gunadharma turned into the ranks of the hills Menoreh, of course, this is just fiction legends and fairy tales.

Borobudur building is a building that was built to worship the Buddhist community. but in time marching now Borobudur was abandoned for a place of worship, it is now more synonymous as a local and foreign tourism.

There I could capture some photos of me and the entourage.
