🇮🇩 Yogyakarta Must-Visit: The Magnificent Borobudur! 🏛️✨
Built in the 9th century and buried under volcanic ash for 806 years, Borobudur is one of the Four Ancient Wonders of the East! 🚗 How to Get There? 1️⃣ Private Car (Expensive but Convenient) 650K–900K IDR (~325–450 RMB) Great for groups! 2️⃣ Budget Mode: Public Minibus (Cheap & Easy!) 20K IDR (~10 RMB) from Bank Indonesia (old building) in downtown Yogyakarta. Fixed schedule (I took the 6:30 AM bus, arrived by 8 AM). 1.5-hour ride with AC—super comfy! 🎫 Tickets & Tips ✔ Book ONLINE in advance (sells out fast!). ✔ Get the "Sunrise/Summit Access" ticket (~250 RMB) – Worth it! (Without summit access, it’s 180 RMB—not worth it.) ✔ Free coconut-fiber sandals (to protect the temple)—keep them as souvenirs! 👡 ☀ Best Time to Climb? MORNING! (My slot was 11:30 AM–1 PM—BRUTAL sun! ☀🔥 Sunscreen is a MUST!) 😭 My Regret… I planned to visit Prambanan (another stunning Hindu temple) the same day, but they’re in opposite directions! 🚐 No private car? Public transport eats up time—I missed Prambanan! Next time… 😢 📸 Why Visit? ✨ UNESCO World Heritage Site 🌅 Breathtaking sunrise views (if you go early!) 📿 Ancient Buddhist carvings & stupas #Indonesia #Yogyakarta #Borobudur #TravelGuide #HiddenGems #BucketList #AncientWonders #TravelTips #SoloTravel #AdventureAwaits 🌏✈️
