Top 10 Sacred & Religious Sites in Yogyakarta, Java

June 26, 2021 Leonarda Pillsbury

Yogyakarta boasts stunning architecture and a truly spiritual sensibility. The ancient Hindu temples of Prambanan look like hand-drizzled sand castles, while the Sultan's palace is reminiscent of a gilded music box filled with jewels. Known for its arts and handicrafts, Yogyakarta is a cultural hub, a nerve center for traditional and modern puppetry.

Plaosan Temple

Reviewed By Yoke_Ming - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

This place is quiet and less visitors. It was well maintained and clean. Free admission but have to registered at the entrance. The twin temples that representing the love of the King and Queen are wonderful.

It is a smaller version of Borobudur but ver very well maintained. the whole area is kept clean and the temple structure is still strong with carvings of Buddhist history in excellent condition. Imagine this temple is built in the 9 century!!

Kauman Grand Mosque

Reviewed By Londontraveller1971 - London, United Kingdom

Another additional stop on our itinerary. For 200 years this majestic mosque has provided the central focus for Muslims in the city. Our guide asked for us to be allowed in, a example of the gentle form of Islam practised on Java was that we were permitted to wonder in, provided with a sarong and shown how to do the ritual washing. It was serene. A privilege to go there.
