Candi Sewu A temple of princess Loro Jonggrang. The Javanese legend of Loro Jonggrang (the exalted virgin) begins when Prince Bandung Bandawasa falls in love with her. She is the daughter of King and Queen Bako whose kingdom was conquered by the Bandawasa’s and who have killed her father. The Prince wants to marry Loro Jonggrang and as a way of saying no she requests the conqueror to prove his powers by building one thousand temples in a single night. Prince Bandawasa and his demons seem to be just moments away from accomplishing this task when alarmed by his progress, Princess Jonggrang asks the village women to pound their wooden rice mortars with their pestles, a sound mistaken by the roosters as the new dawn. Upon hearing the roosters crow and fearing that the sun is about to rise, Bandawasa’s demon helpers flee. Before this false dawn, Prince Bandawasa has already created 999 temples. In anger at his failure to be able to marry Loro Jonggrang, he applies a curse on the Princess which turns her into stone.

Prambanan Temple One of Unesco's world heritage sites, the largest temple compound dedicated to the three great Hindu divinities (Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma) and three temples dedicated to the animals who serve them. Prambanan Temple itself is a complex consisting of 240 temples. Even though extensive restoration works have been done in the past and as recently as after the 2006 earthquake, great care has been taken to retain the authenticity of the structures.
