u need to pay 117,000 rupiah...that is about rm40....just to be able to enter the borobudur temple at 5a.m. and then stay on the second tier of the complex (that is the best spot according to the guide) and wait for the sun to rise from the east.
well, personally, i don't think it is worth paying the money. it was not as magnificent as the one i saw at great ocean road, australia.
the temple complex opens quite early for paying visitors i think, 6a.m. but of course the sun would have risen by then.
but the earlier you go, the better it is as it is less crowded and you have lots of opportunities to take photos at any angles you want and the mist covering the greenery is so beautiful.
you get a complimentary torchlight with the package and early entrance of course. we proceeded to the temple at 4.30a.m. local time.
you get light refreshment of a piece of cake and fried banana and tea/coffee.
sunrise on the day i was there. lightening of the sky from the east and the magnificent view of the merapi mountain. worth the 117,000 rupiah??
