Gedong Songo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gedong Songo (Indonesian: Candi Gedong Songo) is a Hindu

temple located in Central Java, Indonesia. The site was originally
built during early period of Medang Kingdom which controlled
Central Java during the 8th and 9th centuries. Similar to Dieng
Plateau, Gedong Songo was erected out of volcanic stone and the
two complexes represent the oldest Hindu structures in Java. Dieng
and Gedong Songo predate Borobudur and Prambanan. The temples
of Gedong Songo reflect a similar architectural structure to the
Dieng Plateau. However, Gedong Songo displays more emphasis on
plinth and cornice moulding. At Temple 3, an entrance is outlined by
a vestibule that is decorated by guardian figures.[1]
