Borobudur Sunrise and Temple Exploration
Depart with the guide at 04:00 am to witness the spectacular Borobudur sunrise.
Climb to the peak of the highest stupa on the 10th terrace of the pyramid.
Stand in peace surrounded by stupas all around. Let Buddha's spirit envelop your soul and bring a sense of enlightenment at Arupadatu Level.
Face east between two stupas while waiting for the sun to rise and begin giving life to the earth.
Watch the silhouette of Merapi and Merbabu Volcano become clearer as the sun starts to shine from the volcano peaks.
Continue climbing level by level to explore more than 3 km of reliefs.
See 432 Buddha statues at Rupadatu Level, depicted around the body of the temple.
Descend to the last two floors below ground level to reflect on the meaning of Karma.
Enjoy one last glimpse of the temple in the morning before returning to the hotel.
