Borobudur is a 9th century Buddhist temlpe found in the city of Magelang in Central Java. Indonesia. The monument is a shrine to Lord Buddha and also serves as a place for Buddhist pilgrimage especially during Vesak which is a day which encompases birth, Nirvana and the passing away of Buddha.



Borobudur is indeed a magical place during sunset and especially so during sunrise when the sun rises from the back of Gunung Merapi, the mountain of fire which last erupted in 2006.
