Candi Plaosan

Candi Plaosan

Still cannot figure out how to take a nice picture of a temple. I have this same problem when trying to take a picture of a waterfall.

Well, a little practice wouldn’t hurt :P

A little something about Plaosan Temples, taken from Lonely Planet:

Located 3 km from Prambanan complex. Can be reached by foot by taking the road north from the main gate, going past candi sewu at the end of the main complex, and then taking a right turn. Stay on this road for about 1 km.

Built by Rakai Pikatan, the Plaosan Temples combine both Hindu and Buddhist religious symbols and carvings. The temples are comprised of the main Plaosan Lor (Plaosan North) compound and the smaller Plaosan Kidul (Plaosan South), just a couple of hundred metres away.
