The grandeur of Prambanan Temple, a World Heritage Site, witnessed the friendship between Indonesia and India

Yogyakarta - As planned, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi completed his state visit to Indonesia by visiting the Prambanan Temple Complex on Wednesday, July 8.

Prime Minister Modi accompanied by President Prabowo Subianto then enjoyed the beauty of Prambanan Temple from the air using the TNI AU Caracal Helicopter. Using four helicopters, President Prabowo, Prime Minister Modi, and a limited entourage appeared to surround the Prambanan Temple area from the air.

From the height, the grandeur of the largest Hindu temple complex in Indonesia blends harmoniously with the green expanse and the Yogyakarta landscape, presenting a stunning panorama.

The view from space shows the grandeur of Prambanan Temple as one of the masterpieces of Nusantara architecture that has stood since the 9th century, precisely around the middle of the year 850 AD during the Old Mataram Kingdom. Prambanan Temple was built during the Old Mataram Kingdom and dedicated to the Trimurti, namely Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma.

The existence of Prambanan Temple is an important symbol of the development of Hindu civilization in Indonesia as well as proof of the close historical and cultural relationship between Indonesia and India that has been established for centuries.

The moment of enjoying Prambanan Temple from the air became the opening of the World Leaders Journey in the series of state visits by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Indonesia. Previously, in his speech at the State Palace, Prabowo appreciated the restoration of the Prambanan Temple area.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Modi expressed his enthusiasm when he was invited by Prabowo to visit the historic site. President Prabowo and Prime Minister Modi not only witnessed the beauty of the world-class architecture, but also strengthened the closeness of the two nations built on the foundation of history, civilization, and friendship that continues to grow.
