Last holiday my students and I had an amazing adventure in Jogjakarta! We stayed at the fabulous Morison Hotel, just a short distance from the vibrant Malioboro. On Friday, we explored the breathtaking sanctuaries in Prambanan. There are three magnificent sanctuaries: the Brahmana, Syiwa, and Wisnu. Unfortunately, the Wisnu sanctuary was under renovation, so we only visited the Brahmana and Syiwa sanctuaries. The intricate details and beauty of these sanctuaries left us in awe! On Saturday morning, we had the privilege of visiting Yogya Kraton. Our knowledgeable and friendly guide made the experience even more enjoyable. After spending a delightful two hours there, we continued our journey to Borobudur. We arrived at four p.m., just in time to hear the announcement that the Borobudur entrance would be closing. It was a magical evening as we bid farewell to Jogjakarta and embarked on our bus journey.
