What our travelers think about their stay
Prambanan is a Hindu temple built in the 9th century and is listed as a Unesco World Heritage site. It is the largest Indonesian complex dedicated to the divinity Shiva.
My suggestion
If you do not have a local guide, here is the simplest way to get to Prambanan by public transport: take the number 2B from Marlioboro bus stop all the way to Jombor terminal, from there a local bus goes as far as the temple.
Along with Borobudur temple, Prambanan is an essential thing to do while you are in Java.
My suggestion
As is the case for the other unavoidable temple of the region, I recommend that you get to the sanctuary a little before it opens. This way you will get the impression of having the whole place to yourself.
Prambanan is a complex of more than 2000 Shivaist temples dating from the 9th century and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site .
My suggestion
Remember to bring along water, a hat and sun screen: it gets very hot here right from the early hours of the day.
