| | Indonesian Architecture: Prambanan (Loro Jonggrang) Temple, near Yogyakarta |
 | | The temple was constructed in the early ninth century by the Sanjaya dynasty, a flourishing Hindu kingdom that shared the island with the Buddhist Saliendra dynasty that built Borobudur. | | | However, the Sanjayas do not seem to have been particularly antagonistic toward the Buddhist faith of the Saliendras—indeed, the temple complex is located just a few hundred meters south of Candi Sewu, a once awe-inspiring marvel of Buddhist art. | | | Candi Prambanan is the grandest temple in Java apart from Borobudur. |

| | Mark Moxon, Travel Writer: Indonesia: Prambanan |
| | Not far from Borobudur is Prambanan, which we visited on Thursday 30th. | | | One answer to the riddle of having opposing religious structures built at the same time is this: about the time that Borobudur and Prambanan were built, there was a marriage in the ruling classes between a Hindu and a Buddhist lineage. | | | It's interesting to note that these two huge complexes are so close together, were built at roughly the same time, and yet are from two completely opposing religions: Buddhists and Hindus don't agree on a lot of matters, but the chief dispute is about where Buddha came from. |

| | The Prambanan complex consists of three main temples dedicated to these three Hindu gods: Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. | | | Hinduism focuses on the worship of three major gods who are responsible for creation (Brahma), preservation (Vishnu) and destruction (Shiva) in the universe. | | | The two other shrines to the north and south of Nandi may have originally been meant to house Brahma's vehicle-the swan, and Vishnu's vehicle-the garuda. |

| | For example, instead of considering Candi Prambanan a rival to Borobudur, as some scholars have done, the author proposes to regard Prambanan and Borobudur as twin pinnacles of early Central Javanese culture, a culture in which Buddhists and Hindus lived peacefully together and helped each other in building their respective sanctuaries. | | | This question is closely associated with another issue, namely the date of the foundation of the Candi Prambanan temple complex. | | | Despite universal recognition of Candi Prambanan as one of the greatest monuments of Indonesia, so far there has been hardly any critical and comprehensive study that deals with various aspects of this monument such as art style, archaeological theories, mythical background and religious inspiration. |
