Borobudur

July 12th, 2008 by Isabel Esterman

One of the quite nice things about this visit to Indonesia is that I’m on a pretty loose schedule, and have time to do normal touristy things like visit temples.

We even got up at 4:00 in the morning the catch the sunrise at Borobudur (and thus miss the heat and the crowds). It was quite lovely, and I didn’t even spend too much time geeking out about localization, religious syncretism and the diffusion of Indic culture in Southeast Asia.

    Ha! I assume this was in the pre-smoking days?
