Before I die #1

There are so many places I want to see with my own eyes, before I close my eyes for the last and final time. Before natural disasters causing these places to vanish, before human mistakes causing it to disappear.

Lets start with Indonesia, our very own neighbour.

Java is world most populous island, where the capital of Indonesia, Jakarta is sitting on. Jakarta city is on the west side of Java island, somewhere in the middle of the island, we have Yogyakarta city.

Nearby to Yogyakarta city, there is an ancient Hindu temple complex.

Prambanan, one of the most beautiful Hindu temple in the world.

Next, towards to northwest of Yogyakarta city, we have a temple complex dedicated to the Buddhist.

The temple of Borobudur, built in the 9th century as well. It was built 300 years before Angkor Wat construction started in Cambodia.

 

 

Well, so far my work only allows me to reach the outskirt of Jakarta. I wish that one day, when I have the ability to go to these places, it won’t be too late.
