I'm elated to see your post in the community! Wow, you've been there! My encounter with Borobudur Temple was in thick architectural books. We were asked to draw it and study its form and detail as part of the History of Architecture classes. I'd love to visit one day. Thank you for sharing the many different types of traditional or vernacular houses and the waste management problem that we all need to address.
Thank you very much for your lovely well wishes 😊
You should visit there! but after hundredth visits, it lost its charm on me :D nowadays I am finding the right time to explore the terracota ancient architectures. This one below is typical architecture in Borobudur and Prambanan area.
Wow hundreds visits... You are blessed :)
Definitely awesome architecture!
My family house is 10 minutes from that place :D
My family house is about 15 hours flying from that place, but hopefully I will be back to revisit :)
Have a great day!
There are more great temples out there other than the one in Magelang, Yogyakarta, and Bali. I once took a full day archeological tour to temples around Borobudur and nearby whilst learning about the history, the architectural design, symbolism,and the modern problem of these ancient architecture. It was pretty interesting. If you could visit again, I hope you could find this type of tour.
Have a great day!
Thank you, I am noting these great info down.
Hi @macchiata, I agree with @crazy-andy, so blessed 😊 wow hundredth visits.. Indonesia is a country in our travel wish list.
Well I really feel welcomed here :)
I will definitely make some other post to the community as well...
I would say that visiting Borobudur means a lot for someone like you which is strongly connected with architecture.
As I wrote, I don't know much about it and I am not familiar will all the building technques used etc. I just visited the place and admire it with my eyes. Truly special place.
Hope you will be able to visit Borobudur once and study it at your point of view.
Have a great day Arni!
I am sure Borobudur Temple has left an impression on you. That's the beauty of architecture, to make each of us experience something unusual that we would always remember whatever our field of expertise is. I am certain you'll like the next contest topic. 😊
