15. Last holiday my students and I went to
Jogjakarta. We stayed at Morison Hotel which
is not a long way from Malioboro. On Friday,
we went to the sanctuaries in Prambanan.
There are three major sanctuaries, the
Brahmana, Syiwa and Wisnu sanctuaries. They
are truly stunning. We went by just Brahmana
and Syiwa sanctuaries, on the grounds that
Wisnu sanctuary is being remodeled. On
Saturday morning we went to Yogya Kraton.
We spent around two hours there. We were
fortunate on the grounds that we were driven
by a brilliant and amicable aide. At that point
we proceeded with our adventure to
Borobudur. We touched base there at four
p.m. At 6 p.m. we heard the declaration that
Borobudur entryway would be closed. In the
evening we left Jogjakarta by bus.
