A very interesting complex that have the museum and the buildings from the ancient Kingdom of Majapahit. The museum guide also explained lots of the technology and architectural during that times. This site was not exposed to lots of tourists, but of you were keen on culture and archeology, a visit to this site was worthed. Pack on some snacks/lunch when you visit the area.

Tikus Temple

Reviewed By Grace O - Indonesia

This is said to be formerly used as a bathing place for the royals. Some said it is a worship place. Either way, it is an exotic place. You can see how surprisingly advanced technology they had back then through the water system. They even had the hole system we have for our jacuzzi now. The best part of the trip here was that you can go down the temple, and explore it real close.
Short, but memorable visit!

The vihara is situated at a quiet grounds, often visited during the Vesak days in Indonesia.

Candi Bajangratu

Reviewed By Raymond W - Chengdu, China

This is one of the best-preserved of the ruins at Trowulan, a village outside of Mojokerto. Tall, slender and sparsely decorated, it very much belongs to the East Java tradition of temple-building. It is one of the must-see sights on a rickshaw tour of the area. Surabaya would be the best base for a visit here.
