The temple is a popular tourist destination when we visit Java, also Bali. This is because of the legacy of the Hindu-Buddhist civilization. Like what I found this time but it is quite unique.
Actually, I have never seen a temple in person because I have not visited to travel to an area that has a temple heritage site. But I will go there later because I am currently on Java and I will be ready to explore many areas that have historical tourism. It's just that this is not just a temple.
I stayed at a hotel called "The Ramada Suites By Wyndham Solo Hotel". This time I will not discuss the main design of this hotel, but instead I will discuss the replica of the temple which is the main attraction for visitors to this place.
Temples are generally used as places of worship or places of worship for the gods of Hindu-Buddhist teachings. The temple in this hotel of course only functions as a means of entertainment and art.
Although it is relatively small compared to the original temple area, this temple replica has many good details. I think it is very worthy of appreciation.
The temple replica is located behind the hotel area, in the villa area and hotel gardens. So I passed several villas before coming to this place.
The villa buildings have temple elements on the gates of the villa buildings.
Before going up to the main body of the temple replica, there is a seating area. Using the concept of elephant-shaped statues as seats. Then on the top there is also a minimalist roof so that visitors who sit are not exposed to the heat.
Near the seats there are also statues of goddesses. The surrounding area looks neat and clean.
Then I stepped into the main area of the temple. There is a unique special gate. There are balanced accessories on the right and left. There are also two statues.
Then at the main gate of the temple there are stairs that are usually found in temples in general to go to the main area of the temple.
The foot of the temple replica is quite high. There are many stupas that look like unique inverted bowls.
On the body of the temple replica there are two parts of the steps. On the right and left sides of the temple replica.
On the body of this temple replica, many amazing details are starting to be seen. Especially about the reliefs on the walls.
Various reliefs can be seen here in great detail. Generally about the lives of gods and humans.
I climbed up the body of the temple replica through the steps in the left position. The left and right sides will look like a unique corridor.
On the main body of the temple replica there are many medium-sized statues, quite large. Displayed as if in a building niche. There are two main parts.
At the top level there are statues of the gods.
A stunning temple replica with details. This is enough to make me curious to see what the original temple from prehistoric times will look like. Later I will tell you about my next journey! See you next time!
