I stepped into the millennium-old mysterious temple in Indonesia

Yogyakarta, Indonesia | Borobudur & Prambanan | Solo One-Day Tour||| Regarding the itinerary, I went to these two world heritage sites alone, which just unlocked the way to go alone for a day. 1⃣️Prerequisites: An objective factor for checking in two world heritage sites in one day is good weather. In Yogyakarta in March, it is generally clear in the morning and heavy rain in the afternoon, so a day when it does not rain in the morning and afternoon can make the itinerary much simpler. 2⃣️Borobudur: I stayed at the Phoenix Hotel Mgallery not far from the train station. The time to go to Borobudur and Prambanan is one hour and half an hour respectively. I got up at eight in the morning, finished breakfast at nine, changed some money, and grabbed a motorcycle at about nine thirty. The one-way trip to Borobudur is 120k. The total ticket price including the climb is 755k, and a pair of straw shoes is given. I told the motorcycle driver that he would wait for me at the door. Borobudur comes with a tour guide, and as long as there are five people, they will go up. I stayed in the temple for about two hours, then came out and let the driver take me to a nearby hilltop to overlook Borobudur and fly a drone, but the distance was a bit far and the effect was not very good. Then I went straight back to the hotel in Yogyakarta. On the way, I negotiated with the driver. He also took me to Prambanan in the afternoon, and he waited for me to rest in the hotel in the middle. 3⃣️Prambanan: Prambanan is much closer, I didn't set off until two thirty in the afternoon, and arrived after three. Although Prambanan does not have a free guide, you can find enough research materials by opening YouTube, and you can have a good tour experience with a little study. At sunset, I flew a drone on the periphery and got some good photos under the setting sun. Compared with the single building of Borobudur, the multiple stupas of Prambanan are more rich in viewing and more layered in shooting. I took a car back to the hotel at sunset. 4⃣️Summary: The round trip from the hotel to Prambanan is 100k. In the end, I paid the driver because I went to an extra mountain and gave 30k. The total transportation cost is 100k+240k+30k. For one person, the price is relatively acceptable. I returned to the hotel at more than five o'clock, a perfect day~
