Yogyakarta & the temples of Java
The largest Buddhist temple on earth rising out of the morning mist, a volcano nearby that glows faintly at its summit after dark, and batik still hand-drawn in workshops that welcome anyone curious enough to watch.
The best time to visit Yogyakarta & the temples of Java is Apr–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 31°C (88°F). Local time there is 12:59 (UTC+7).
