Recount Text: Yogyakarta Trip

“Yogyakarta Trip”

My students and I went to Yogyakarta last Thursday and Friday. We stayed at Dirgahayu Hotel which is not far from Malioboro.

On Thursday, we visited the temples in Prambanan. There are three big temples, the Brahmana, Syiwa and Wisnu temples. They are really amazing. We visited only Brahmana and Syiwa temples, because Wisnu temple is being renovated. On Friday morning, we went to Yogya Kraton. We spent about two hours there. We were lucky because we were led by a friendly guide. Then we continued our journey to Borobudur. We arrived there at four p.m. At 5 p.m. we heard the announcement that Borobudur gate would be closed.

In the evening, we left for Jakarta by Wisata Bus. It was such a wonderful trip.
