Yogyakarta has been central to Javanese culture and political power for many centuries. This is reflected in the many historical sites that exist within the Yogyakarta region. None is more spectacular than Borobudur, the largest Buddhist temple in the world.

Borobudur is a major tourist attraction and we explore the history and the meaning of this mighty construction. It was lost for centuries and rediscovered in the early 19^th century while the British ruled the Dutch East Indies, during the Napoleonic occupation of the Netherlands.

Two versions of the Borobudur video are provided. The longer version discusses more of the spiritual underpinnings to the meaning of Borobudur.

Not far from Borobudur is Candi Prambanan, the major Hindu temple complex in Indonesia, reflecting the waves of religious and cultural influences that permeated Javanese life. Beautiful in its own right, the temple complex gives some feeling of the economic and political power that existed within Java in the centuries before invasion by European powers.
