Answer 2

**Borobudur Temple, terletak di Magelang, Jawa Tengah, Indonesia, adalah candi Buddha terbesar di dunia yang dibangun pada abad ke-9 selama masa pemerintahan Dinasti Sailendra. Candi ini terdiri dari sembilan platform bertingkat yang disusun secara vertikal, enam berbentuk persegi dan tiga berbentuk bulat, yang di atasnya terdapat sebuah kubah utama. Dinding dan balustrades candi ini dihiasi dengan lebih dari 2.600 panel relief dan 504 patung Buddha. Kubah utama dikelilingi oleh 72 patung Buddha, masing-masing duduk di dalam stupa yang berlubang. Borobudur berfungsi sebagai tempat suci bagi Buddha dan juga sebagai tempat ziarah bagi para penganut agama Buddha. Candi ini mencerminkan kombinasi unik arsitektur India dan Jawa. Meskipun ditinggalkan pada abad ke-14 ketika penduduk Jawa beralih ke Islam, Borobudur ditemukan kembali pada abad ke-19 oleh Gubernur Jenderal Inggris Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles. Saat ini, Borobudur adalah Situs Warisan Dunia UNESCO dan salah satu atraksi wisata paling banyak dikunjungi di Indonesia.**
