Prambanan Temple

The next day, we explored more of Jogya, including the Sultan's Water Palace. Here are a few pictures of the pools there. 






Eventually, we worked our way back to the Prambanan Temple, which is the largest Hindu temple in southeast Asia. The temple is actually a temple complex of several separate temples. The largest is dedicated to Shiva and includes an inner chamber for Ganesh. The two other large temples are for Brahma and Vishnu. We climbed the steps up into the inner chambers and took some pictures of the statues inside. This is the rainy season on Java, so we were reminded of that fact.
