Temple Borobudur

di 04.41 | Diposting oleh Hadi Nursamsudin

Who does not know Candi Borobudur? This Buddhist temple has 1460 relief panels and 504 Buddha effigies in the complex. Not surprisingly, since architecturally and functionally, as a place of worship, Borobudur is attractive.
Borobudur was built by King Samaratungga, one of the kings of Old Mataram Kingdom, Sailendra descendants. Based on Kayumwungan inscription, an Indonesian named Hudaya Kandahjaya revealed that Borobudur is a place of worship which was completed May 26 824, nearly a hundred years since the early days was built. The name of Borobudur itself according to some people means a mountain having terraces (budhara), while the other says that Borobudur means monastery on the high places.
Borobudur-shaped building berundak punden consists of 10 levels. Height 42 meters before being renovated and 34.5 meters after the renovation because the lowest level was used as a drag. Six lowest level and square in the upper three floors and a circular highest level of Buddhist stupa facing to the west. Each level represents the stage of human life. In accordance with of Buddha Mahayana, anyone who wants to reach the level of Buddha must go through each of those life stages.
The base of Borobudur, called Kamadhatu, symbolizing human beings that are still bound by lust. Four levels mentioned above represents Rupadhatu humans who have set themselves free from lust but still tied to appearance and shape. At these levels, a statue of Buddha placed in open space. Meanwhile, three levels above where the Buddhist stupa placed in the holes is called Arupadhatu, symbolizing human beings that have been freed from lust, appearance, and shape. The top part is called Arupa symbolizes nirvana, where Buddha is residing.
Each terrace has beautiful relief panels showing how skillful. Relief that will be read by coherently when you walk in a clockwise direction (toward the left of the entrance of the temple). The relief panels tell the legendary story of Ramayana. In addition, there are relief panels describing the condition of society at that time. For example, relief of farmers' activity reflecting the advance of agriculture system and relief of sailing boat representing the advance of the time the cruise was centered in Bergotta (Semarang).
All relief panels in Borobudur temple reflect the teachings of the Buddha. Hence, this temple functions as educating the media for people who want to learn Buddhism. YogYES invites you to walk through each narrow passage in Borobudur in order to understand the philosophy of Buddhism. Atisha, a Buddhist from India in the 10th century, had visited the temple that was built 3 centuries before Angkor Wat in Cambodia and 4 centuries before the Grand Cathedrals in Europe.
Thanks to visiting Borobudur and having Buddhist manuscripts from Serlingpa (King of Sriwijaya), Atisha was able to develop Buddhism. He became head of Vikramasila monastery and taught Tibetans of practicing Dharma. Six scripts from any Serlingpa reduced to a core doctrine called "The Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment" or better known by the name Bodhipathapradipa.
One of the questions are as yet unresolved about Borobudur is how the condition around the temple was built and why the temple was found in a buried state. Some say Borobudur initially stood surrounded by a swamp and buried because of the eruption of Merapi. Essentially Calcutta inscription reads 'Amawa' means sea of milk. The word is then interpreted as Merapi lava. Some other says that Borobudur buried in the cold lava of Merapi.
With all the grandeur and mystery that is, only natural that many people from all enter the world penjru Borobudur as a place to visit in his life. Besides enjoying the temple, you can walk around to the villages around Borobudur, such as Karanganyar and Wanurejo to see people making craft activity. You also can go to the top watu Kendil to view the panorama from the top of Borobudur. Wait what? No need to worry earthquake May 27, 2006, because of Borobudur is not affected at all.

Malioboro crowds and splendor can not be separated from the many vendors lined along the Malioboro street hawking his wares, almost all courses offered are items / objects characteristic of Jogja as a souvenir / by-by for tourists. They traded handicrafts typical of Jogjakarta, among others ayaman rattan handicrafts, leather, batik, silver, bamboo and others, in the form of batik clothes, leather bags, leather shoes, decorative wicker, leather puppets, bamboo keychains, spoons / forks silver, headcloth Batik [a kind of distinctive hats Yogyakarta / Java], t-shirts with various models / writings and many others.The vendors have the wares spread on the table, there are carts that hold just the plastic on the floor. So when a visitor quite busy Malioboro between visitors will be jostling for the narrowness of the road for the pedestrians because it is solid and the number of traders on the right and left.

Malioboro corner one connected with roads and limited Mangkubumi by the Tugu railway station and the other end connected to the road A. Yani. In the area of Malioboro and the surrounding area many other locations that can be visited such as Siti inggil Keraton Jogjakarta, Beringhardjo market, fort Vredeburg, Gedong Senisono, Sono Budoyo Museum and others. Currently Malioboro can be regarded as the heart of the city of Yogyakarta, because many traders and visitors passing by. The area is very busy both on either side of a corridor or on the street one-way vehicle although the road will Mangkubumi but various types of vehicles drove down the street and meet it and do not be surprised if congestion occurs. From the traditional vehicles such as tricycles, buggy / buggy / wagon, bicycles, wagons or motorized vehicles such as cars, taxis, city buses, public transportation, motorcycles and lainny

> Kawasan Malioboro as one of the flagship shopping area of Yogyakarta, is supported by the shops, restaurants, shopping centers, and do not miss the commander vendors. For shops, shopping centers and restaurants are actually the same as the business and shopping centers in major cities the other, which disemarakan with big brand name and there are also local names. Traded goods from local and imported goods, from daily necessities to electronics goods, furniture and so forth. Also provides various handicrafts, such as batik, wayang, ayaman, bags and so on. There is also a foreign currency exchange, banks, five star hotels to the type of jasmine.

But do not miss to browse the Malioboro street is very famous. Able to walk from end to end on two sides of the road, or with a 'gig' [wagon / buggy] and the Yogyakarta special tricycles. In the afternoon very busy Malioboro visitors both residents and tourists, even more so when the school holidays arrive or there is a national holiday is long enough. Actually Malioboro street from end to end to within more than one kilometer course, and the two sides a lot of shops, offices, restaurants and malls and shopping centers, pull back a lot of vendors who lined the road corridor under the umbrella of the hot sun sun or rain. Keramian starts from morning until nine at night when the shopping center on the cap, but the pulse of life Malioboro never stopped because it was ready lesehan stalls spread trades.

To spend the night at around Malioboro is also easily obtained from the type of jasmine inn to five-star hotel. The tourists will not be afraid to enjoy the same vacation days in the city of Yogyakarta even late into the night. They can enjoy the dishes at the stall along the road lesehan Malioboro, which provided food and offered the typical foods of Jogja gudeg rice and fried chicken as well as Padang food, etc. ChinesseFood. We enjoyed the food will be entertained by the music of street traders and buskers are quite a lot of that just brought a guitar that brings adapula complete musical equipment.

There is a special concern for tourists who want to enjoy the stalls lesehan first asking price of food to be ordered before a bill is less pleased dihati, until this becomes a special concern of the local governments with boards hanging in the Malioboro area with the words "Ask list price before you order ". Find a restaurant is considered reasonable in giving the price of a meal and drinks are served, are acts which do not raise rates very reasonable shop image lesehan decrease in Malioboro. It is unfortunate that the tourists visiting Yogyakarta and its surroundings, and especially this Malioboro area visiting only one day. This caused many domestic and foreign tourists spent all my time off just long enough for the tour to visit Yogyakarta and surrounding areas.
