Borobudur Temple (Javanese: ꦕꦟ꧀ꦝꦶꦧꦫꦧꦸꦝꦸꦂ, translit. Candhi Båråbudhur) is a Buddhist temple located in Borobudur, Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. This temple is located approximately 100 km southwest of Semarang, 86 km west of Surakarta, and 40 km northwest of Yogyakarta. This temple with many stupas was built by Mahayana Buddhists around 800 AD during the reign of the Syailendra dynasty. Borobudur is the largest Buddhist temple or shrine in the world, and one of the largest Buddhist monuments in the world.
This monument consists of six square terraces topped by three circular courtyards, the walls are decorated with 2,672 relief panels and originally contained 504 Buddha statues. Borobudur has the most complete and largest collection of Buddhist reliefs in the world. The largest main stupa is located in the centre and crowns the building, surrounded by three circular rows of 72 perforated stupas containing a statue of Buddha sitting cross-legged in a perfect lotus position with the Dharmachakra mudra (hand gesture) (turning the wheel of dharma).
