Candi Merak, Hindu temple in Karangnongko, Klaten, Indonesia.
The temple features a central structure measuring 8.38 meters on each side and reaches 12 meters in height with three smaller shrines.
During excavations in 1925, workers discovered the temple structure beneath a large Joho tree after its collapse revealed ancient statues.
The temple contains intricate carvings of lotus flowers, geometric patterns, and statues of Hindu deities including Durga Mahisasuramardhini and Ganesha.
Visitors can reach the temple by traveling 33 kilometers from Yogyakarta, with nominal parking fees for motorcycles and cars.
The temple received its name from the numerous peacocks that nested in the branches of an ancient Joho tree at this location.
