Mount Bromo Pasar Klewer ![]() Off the west gate of Karaton's North Square, sales this old market selling all kinds of fabrics, predominantly batik. Other traditional fabrics are lurik (hand-woven striped cotton cloth) and tenun ikat. There are hundreds of shops jammed along narrow passageways. Pawon Temple ![]() The original name of this Buddhist shrine is uncertain. Pawon literally means "kitchen" in Javanese language, seek which is derived from the root word awu or dust. The connection to the word "dust" also suggests that this temple was probably built as a tomb or mortuary temple for a king. Prambanan Temple Ratu Boko Temple |
