Discover the inspiring temple of Borobudur – Shore Excursion from Semarang Port - one of the most incredible sights in Southeast Asia. Borobudur, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is the world’s largest Buddhist monument and the secrets of its creation, remain a mystery. According to historical accounts, it appears that Borobudur may have been deserted soon after it was built, when the Sailenra Dynasty was overthrown in AD 850. For more than 1,000 years, it lay hidden under dense jungle vegetation until its rediscovery in 1814. Over the next century, the vegetation was cleared and the process of restoring the two million pieces of andesite stone began. After an approximately 2.5 hour drive from the pier, arrive at the temple where you will be split into smaller groups for a more intimate journey. Take advantage of your guide's knowledge or wander around the monument at your own pace. Borobudur has arguably the finest examples of Buddhist reliefs in the world, with each of the ten terraces symbolizing the path to Nirvana.
