Our journey begins in Yogyakarta and takes us to the Dieng Plateau to experience the golden sunrise from Sikunir. This misty location, with its sulfurous springs, ancient temples, and colorful lakes, is a true marvel of nature and culture.
We will explore the Arjuna temple, a collection of small Hindu temples dating back to the seventh century. Although there were once 400 temples, only 10 remain today (History of Java: Raffles’s book 1817).
The temples were skillfully crafted by artisans known as Sipi. Before a Sipi could construct a temple for the public, they had to build a small temple in this area and present it to the leader of the Sipi. This is why there were so many temples in this region long ago.
