These first pictures are of Borobudur, the impressive Buddhist
Temple just a few miles northwest of Yogyakarta. It is said to give the
person wisdom who touches a Buddha statue at the temple. (All three of us
touched the statue- you will have to judge the results.)
From there we traveled to
Yogya and visited the Kraton, home of sultans. Then we went to visit the
Hindu Temple of Prambanan.
