I took a trip to the famous Borobudur Temple in Yogyakarta Indonesia, a quick view and guide on what to expect, from the moment you arrive; where to pay for tickets, get a tour guide, receive some special sandals to help preserve the floors of the temple, to the actual temple itself. I totally recommend getting a guide, this was you can learn a lot more about the history of the temple, its very affordable and will increase your knowledge. The place is so amazing, that its basically impossible to get bored, I will show you around the temple and something magical when reaching the top (including making a wish)

Borobudur Temple, located in Central Java, Indonesia, is one of the most iconic and impressive Buddhist monuments in the world. Built in the 9th century during the reign of the Sailendra Dynasty, this massive temple complex is renowned for its intricate stone carvings and stunning architectural design. The temple is structured as a three-dimensional mandala, symbolizing the journey toward enlightenment, with nine stacked platforms topped by a central dome. Its relief panels depict scenes from Buddhist cosmology and the life of the Buddha, offering a glimpse into ancient Javanese culture and religious beliefs. Surrounded by lush greenery and mountains, Borobudur remains a UNESCO World Heritage site and a popular pilgrimage destination, drawing visitors from all over the globe who come to admire its historical significance and spiritual aura.
