Sari Temple, Buddhist temple in Sleman, Indonesia

The rectangular temple measures 17.3 meters by 10 meters, with three interior chambers connected by doorways along the north-south axis.

The temple construction dates to 778 CE during the reign of Maharaja Tejapurnapana Panangkaran, as documented in the Kalasan inscription.

The temple served as a Buddhist monastery where monks performed meditation rituals and religious ceremonies in separate chambers across two floors.

The temple features multiple windows in two horizontal rows, with holes in the inner sections that once held wooden window bars.

The exterior walls display 36 intricate Buddhist deity carvings arranged in four rows, with traces of protective vajralepa plaster still visible.
