BOROBUDUR TEMPLE


Borobudur is a 9th-century Mahayana Buddhist temple in Magelang Regency, not far from the city of Magelang and the town of Muntilan, in Central Java, Indonesia. It is the world's largest Buddhist temple. The temple consists of nine stacked platforms, six square and three circulars, topped by a central dome. It is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and originally 504 Buddha statues. The central dome is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues, each seated inside a perforated stupa.

Borobudur is the largest Buddhist temple in the world and ranks with Bagan in Myanmar and Angkor Wat in Cambodia as one of the great archeological sites of Southeast Asia. Borobudur remains popular for pilgrimage, with Buddhists in Indonesia celebrating Vesak Day at the monument. Borobudur is Indonesia's single most visited tourist attraction.

KETOPRAK

Ketoprak  is an  Indonesian  food  vegetarian  dish from  Jakarta , consisting of  tofu ,  vegetables ,  rice cake , and  rice vermicelli  served in  peanut sauce . The etymology of the name  ketoprak  is actually closely related to  Javanese folk-drama . During the  Great Depression  in 1930 - 1931, ketoprak viewership was dwindling. Djojosoekarno, a member of Javanese ketoprak troupe "Langenhardjo" in  Jakarta , started selling a dish made of  tofu  mixed with  bean sprouts  and  sweet soy sauce  on stalls for extra income. Due to his popularity as ketoprak performer, customers usually referred to him as "Bang Ketoprak" (lit. "Mr. Ketoprak") and as time passes, his specialty dish is known as ketoprak on itself. taken from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketoprak_(dish)
