Ticket of the Borobudur entrance ticket and some information.

Manohara hotel (look like Resort) is the only hotel strategically located at Borobudur. 

The monument consists of nine stacked platforms, six square and three circular, topped by a central dome.  The central dome is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues, each seated inside a perforated stupa. The temple is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues.

The masterpiece was surrounded by lush greenery with majestic mountain within sight. 
Can you see it? At middle-left (that was Merapi)  beautifully discharging colorful soot 
from the peak, organizing them to the sky.

Prepared to climb fleet of stairs, but will definitely earned back your effort.

Awesome! I was sort of worry will i get to see Sunrise. Everyday rain when i was there from 13-16 Oct 2016. This was the sky after rain. I am sure most of our visit will get different result. 
I count myself lucky!!!

Click! Click! Click! Everyone looking for the best spot



I love this piece (above) with the contrast like day/night and colorful/black&white. 
How about you, which your favourite?

Fantastic sight! Praying for world peace!

Everyone so busy till forgot to sit and admired the handsome pretty look for the sky.

She is out! The early awake and long trip to Borobudur was well worth.

Can you feel me? Flying with wings!
The satisfaction and fulfillment, even awake at 3 am.

We saw two mountains and this was the other. I think this was Mount Sindoro - Sumbing.

So will you miss this place if going to Central Java? 
Will this be your MUST visit destination?

Our achievement and mission accomplished! 

It's time to take two bites and a sip. The snacks nice?
When you are hungry, everything usually tasted great!

Again? haha did you see eyes looking at you?
On way out, our guide asked are we interested to see, (it's FREE so why not)
The famous Luwak Kopi - the cat (civet) poop
