Borobudur

Andrew0181 UAE - 17-Nov-23

World's biggest Buddhist temple. Spectacular to visit. I visited in Nov 23, so was supposed to be raining and low season, but no rain. It was quite quiet. I stayed in Borobudur rather than Yogyakarta to get there early. 

However, since COVID, regulations have changed. There are NO sunrise tours any more

Sangiran Early Man Site

Andrew0181 UAE - 18-Nov-23

I visited on 18th Nov 2023, as a day trip on my way to Solo airport from Borobudur. I went only to the main museum, not the dig sites. It's easy to get to - it's on google maps and the directions it gives are straight forward and accurate. At the museum we had to park some distance away and get a little shuttle bus to the museum. The Museum, about Homo Erectus aka Java Man, that was found in various digs around the nearby countryside was, pretty good. Nothing spectacular. The majority is written in Indonesian, but maybe 30% has been translated into English, too. After a few rooms putting the discoveries into greater global context, the 4th and last room shows you the actual fossils of Sangiran Man, including Sangiran #17 which is the best preserved skull
