Per their website: "This famous Buddhist temple, dating from the 8th and 9th centuries, is located in central Java. It was built in three tiers: a pyramidal base with five concentric square terraces, the trunk of a cone with three circular platforms and, at the top, a monumental stupa. The walls and balustrades are decorated with fine low reliefs, covering a total surface area of 2,500 m2. Around the circular platforms are 72 openwork stupas, each containing a statue of the Buddha. The monument was restored with UNESCO's help in the 1970s."

Interesting Buddhist Temple Pyramid
(Updated: October 25, 2021)

4.5
Borobudur Temple is located near Yogyakarta in Central Java. It is built in a multi-level tiered pyramid form with over 500 Buddha statues adorning it. A climb to the top is worth the view of the many Buddha statues plus the surrounding countryside and mountains. If you are near this area of Java and are interested in the past Buddhist influence on Indonesia, Borobudur makes for a great side excursion to climb this unique temple structure.
