Last holiday my students and I went to Yogyakarta. We stayed at Morison Hotel which is not a
long way from Malioboro. On Friday, we went to the sanctuaries in Prambanan.

There are three significant sanctuaries, the Brahmana, Siwa, and Wisnu. They are truly

closed. In the evening we left Yogyakarta by bus.
