Amanjiwo

Javanese temple hideaway.

Echoing the structure of Borobudur, the world’s largest Buddhist temple, Amanjiwo was built from local Jogja limestone and features soaring ceilings and a central domed stupa roof. Rice fields, clove plantations, and Mount Merapi add to the dramatic Javanese backdrop.
