Borobudur has 10 terraces, 7 terraces are squares and 3 terraces are rounds and on the top of the temple, we can see a big stupa, the symbol of perfection or Nirvana. The temple is on the hill, the hill is artificial and it is not natural so they built a hill first then a temple so inside the temple is a land.

Sebastián is a accommodating, kind, and fun guide, with good conversation. Besides being the guide, he picked us up and took us to the airport. Takes some wonderful photos.
Sebastian from the beginning welcomed us with great care, precision and organization Being always waiting for us to have a drink, we had a clear program and helping ourselves strategically in queues to access the attractions and always describing ourselves in excellent Italian all with accuracy but also discretion leaving us our moments as a couple
Very complete day visit from Yogyakarta to the two temples. Very good organization and Gandhi a good guide. Recommended.
Definitely the best guide for Yogyakarta. Sebastian speaks Spanish perfectly and knows the history and culture of Yogyakarta perfectly. At all times he keeps an eye on your needs and gives you explanations in visits, and all with a great sense of humor.
Muchisimas gracias, un gran abrazo
