Prambanan Hindu temple compound in Central Java, Indonesia (UNESCO WHS)
Prambanan is the ninth century Hindu temple compound in Central Java, Indonesia, dedicated to Trimurti, the expression of God as the Creator (Brahma), the Sustainer (Vishnu) and the Destroyer (Shiva). The temple compound located approximately 18 km east of Yogyakarta city on the boundary between Yogyakarta and Central Java province.
The temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, currently is the largest Hindu temple in Indonesia, and is one of the largest Hindu temples in south-east Asia. It is characterised by its tall and pointed architecture, typical of Hindu temple architecture, and by the towering 47m high central building inside a large complex of individual temples.
巴兰班南位于东爪哇,离日惹市约18公里,是印度尼西亚最大的印度教建筑。
巴兰班南大约建造于公元850年。它的建造者可能是马塔兰王朝的第二个国王,或者三佛齐王朝的 Balitung Maha Sambu。巴兰班南建成后很快就被遗弃并开始破败。其重建始于1918年。1953年前后人们完成了对其主建筑的重建。该建筑的很多原始石材时常被盗用于远处的建筑。根据原物归位的原则,重建必须保证75%的原始材料可用,因此巴兰班南的多数小神庙只剩下地基和危墙,而未被列入重建计划。
今天巴兰班南是联合国教科文组织的一处世界文化遗产,也是东南亚最大的印度教庙宇。它的独特之处在于其高耸的尖顶建筑、印度教建筑的典型风格和高达47米的中心建筑。
巴兰班南在2006年的爪哇地震中受到了严重的损毁。尽管建筑整体完好,但是大块的石料破碎,包括一些石雕都被震落在地上。当地政府一度关闭巴兰班南以评估地震的破坏。日惹古迹保护局称需要数月才能准确评估。不过数周之后巴兰班南就再次对游客开放,只是出于安全限制游人靠近建筑。
