Group of Temples |

![]() |
Gedongsongo Group of Temples is located up in the clouds around Mt. Ungaran. The group consists of nine small Hindu temples. It is assumed that there is some kind of connection, or similarity between the temples here, with the group of temples in Dieng. They are almost as old as those on Dieng, built in the 8th or 9th century, and their history is, too, still unknown. | ||
| It appears that in this
site, there had been a ritual ceremony of purification, to walk from hill to hill, up and
down the winding paths between, making pilgrimage to all the temples in turn. Like in Dieng, excavation, research, and reconstructions are still continuing here in Gedongsongo, to reveal the mystery about these temples.
