Indonesia's Amanjiwo
Amanjiwo
Dating to the eighth and ninth centuries, the Borobudur temple in central Java is one of the finest representations of Buddhist inspired architecture in the world. Six rectangular stories ascend to the three circular terraces and a central stupa at the top. While the temple is accessible to the masses throughout the day, it is the guests at Amanjiwo who enjoy privileged access to the temple early in the mornings when the temple shines at its finest.
The resort mimics the architectural beauty of Borobudur with limestone archways and stupas, while the resort’s artist in residence has managed to capture the superior beauty of the countryside within the bounds of the resort. Enjoy 35 suites with views of either Borobudur or the surrounding farmland. Dive into the private plunge pools of the resort or opt for an elephant ride along the verdant paths of the surrounding hills.
