The One with the UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE TRIP

I've been obsessed by the Unesco World Heritage Sites lately. Syria nyer pasal la ni. During my 2weeks off back in Malaysia, managed to squeezed in 3 days trip to Solo and Jogjakarta. Mission was to visit the 3 sites listed under the Unesco World Heritage Sites. Each has its own unique stories.

The Prambanan site near Jogja. One of the largest hindu temple there is in SEA. Magnificent! Restoration work is still on going due to the 2006 earthquake.

Borobudur. The monument is both a shrine to the Lord Buddha and a place for Buddhist pilgrimage.

Candi CEto, Candi Sukuh, Kraton, Sangeran Early Human Site and the original soto.

It was a short trip and pretty much i can say that only minimal amount of ringgit needed to achieve this trip of mine. Khalas!
