Why Prambanan's 'Tourist Price' is Worth Every Penny: A Journey Through Time and Ruins

#indonesiatrip #yogjakarta #unesco
Many tourists tend to skip Prambanan Temple due to the relatively high entrance fee, especially for foreigners. However, I didn’t mind paying the “tourist price” to visit this UNESCO World Heritage site, considering its rich history and the fact that the funds contribute to the restoration of structures damaged by the 2006 earthquake.
Prambanan, a stunning 9th-century Hindu temple complex, was built by the Sanjaya dynasty and stands as one of Southeast Asia's most impressive cultural landmarks. As you wander through the complex, especially at Candi Sewu, the sight of ancient ruins amidst the restored temples is awe-inspiring. It’s worth every penny and moment spent here. Don't miss Candi Sewu—it's a hidden gem that adds depth to the entire Prambanan experience.
