Go to Prambanan during Dragon Boat Festival

#Dragon Boat Festival good places During the rare Dragon Boat Festival holiday, you must come to Yogyakarta to experience the local customs. Built in 850, Prambanan is the second largest Hindu temple after Angkor Wat. There are 240 temple towers in total, the six largest of which are dedicated to the three main gods of Hinduism: Shiva (the god of destruction), Vishnu (the god of order) and Brahma (the god of creation) and their mounts: the bull, the eagle and the swan. So far, 22 temple towers have been restored, and the remaining 218 are in a collapsed state. If one temple tower is restored per year, it will take 218 years to complete the restoration. It costs about 13 US dollars for foreigners, which is not cheap considering the local prices. But considering that the restoration of the ancient monument requires a lot of manpower and money, it is better to pay if you have money. After all, it is a rare Dragon Boat Festival holiday.
