    On the island of Java, Indonesia, there is a legend, still standing today. It is a mountain that has a secret over a thousand years old. Thousands of statues adorne its face, facing the many volcanoes that surround the ara. This is Borobudur, an ancient Buddhist temple complex, which was forgotten and abandoned for centuries, although no one knows why. In fact, it was forgotten for so long that it was hidden beneath volcanic ash and overgrown jungle for hundreds of years.



    But now beautiful Borobudur is a hugely popular Buddhist monument. No one forgets it now, and so I got to enjoy, and share, this fantastic photo-tour with you.
