HIGHEST PIECE

Have you ever see the highest placement graffiti piece in Semarang?
I found this on the parking lot of Candi Gedong Songo.
A temple resort on 900 meters above the sea level.


Save Our Gedong9 | by : unknown

Gedong Songo is a resort on the slope of mount Ungaran,
about 900 meters above sea level.
Gedong Songo (nine buildings), a group of small 8th century Hindu Javanese temples,
can be reached either by car or on horseback from the town.
Built at about the same time as the temples of the Dieng complex,
Gedong Songo is one of the most beautifully sited temple
complexes in Central Java and the views alone are worth the trip.
Gedung Songo ('Nine Buildings') belong to the earliest antiquities of Java,
they follow up the temples on the Dieng Plateau directly, for what about time.
They were also built high in the mountains in an area full with volcanic activity;
and they were also from Hinduist origin.
But where the temples on Dieng Plateau are somewhat squeezed into a foggy valley,
Gedung Songo are spread over the higher parts of the mountains,
which guarantee a splendid view.
On clear days, the horizon is one long row of volcanoes,
from mount Lawu in the east, towards mount Sumbing,
mount Sundoro and Dieng Plateau in the west.

Just come and feel the breezing wind.
But we're not suggesting to make a tag or doin' vandal at this place.
