Walking through the monumental square and circular terraces, you will be surrounded by a massive stone mandala, allowing you to appreciate the true architectural scale of the monument just as ancient kings did centuries ago.

Expect a thrilling change of pace as you board an open-top classic 4WD jeep on the rugged slopes of Mount Merapi. Feeling the fresh mountain breeze, you will traverse the rugged terrain reshaped by past eruptions. You will visit the deep underground Kaliadem bunker, see the unique massive "Alien Rock", and explore a local museum filled with items melted by hot volcanic ash, offering a powerful, up-close look at the untamed elements of the Earth.
★ Exhilarating 4WD Volcanic Ride on Mount Merapi
Expect to be deeply awed by the sheer vertical scale and elegance of Prambanan Temple, the largest Hindu complex in Indonesia. As you enter the main courtyard, you will look up at the soaring 47-meter-high central shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva, flanked by the towering structures of Brahma and Vishnu. Walking around the base of these stone masterpieces, you will discover the beautifully preserved narrative reliefs depicting the legendary Ramayana epic, showcasing the brilliant artistic height of ancient Javanese civilization.
