Borobudur

Majestic in its size, magical in its serenity, powerful in its stoical longevity, Borobudur defies all superlatives to inhabit its own otherworldly magnificence. This 9th century temple, made up of a series of carved platforms rising up to a central stupa, is an important pilgrimage site, and one of the finest archaeological sites of Asia, alongside Bagan in Myanmar and Angkor Wat in Cambodia.
