This famous Buddhist temple, dating from the 8th and 9th centuries, is
located in central Java. It was built in three tiers: a pyramidal base
with five concentric square terraces, the trunk of a cone with three
circular platforms and, at the top, a monumental stupa. The walls and
balustrades are decorated with fine low reliefs, covering a total
surface area of 2,500 m2. Around the circular platforms are
72 openwork stupas, each containing a statue of the Buddha. The monument
was restored with UNESCO's help in the 1970s.
