Ratu Boko Temple

The complex spans 16 hectares across two hamlets, featuring fortified walls, dry moats, gates, temples, and courtyards on a plateau 204 meters above sea level.

Built in the 8th century by the Buddhist Syailendra Dynasty, the site transformed into a Hindu-Buddhist complex under the Mataram Kingdom's rule in Central Java.

The archaeological remains include the Abhayagiriwihara inscription from 792 AD, Buddhist statues, Hindu deities, and architectural elements reflecting both religious traditions.

Visitors need to walk 100 meters uphill from the entrance to reach the main gate, with operating hours from 6:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily.

The complex contains two caves called Gua Lanang and Gua Wadon, along with systematic pools divided by stone walls in the Keputren royal princess area.
