Ijo Temple

Ijo Temple, Hindu temple in Yogyakarta, Indonesia

Ijo Temple is a Hindu temple complex on the western slope of Gumuk Ijo hill in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Its 17 structures are arranged across 11 terraces, with the main temple on the highest terrace. The main temple has a square base, three niches on each side, and a stepped pyramid roof. Three smaller temples face it from the east.

The name Ijo appears in the Poh inscription of 906 CE, which records 'anak wanua i wuang hijo', people of the village of Ijo. The temple itself was built between the 10th and 11th centuries during the Mataram kingdom. One of the smaller perwara temples was restored in 2013, while other ruins on the lower terraces remain under excavation.

The name comes from Gumuk Ijo, the hill where the temple stands; the Poh inscription of 906 CE records the Old Javanese phrase "anak wanua i wuang hijo", meaning "people of the village of Ijo". The three perwara temples in front of the main shrine were built to honour the Trimurti: Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.

The site sits at an elevated position and the path leads upward over many steps. From the upper levels you look west across rice fields and see the airport in the distance.

The name Ijo appears in the Poh inscription of 906 CE, in Old Javanese wording recorded as "anak wanua i wuang hijo", meaning people of the village of Ijo. The hill itself is called Gumuk Ijo, and the temple takes its name from it. Excavations on the slopes also turned up artifacts suggesting the complex once reached further west and north.
