PRAMBANAN
Build around the middle of the ninth century, the great temple of Loro Jonggrang at Prambanan, near Yogyakarta, is arguably Central Java's greatest architectural achievment. While not so large as the famous Borobudur, Prambanan displays an elegance and majesty which is surely unsurpassed anywhere in South East Asia
