PRAMBANA IN KEWU PLAIN
The Prambanan Park is situated on the Kewu Plain in both
Central Java Province and Yogjakarta Special District. This is a country area
approximately 15 kilometres east of Yogyakarta City in Opak River basin.
It extends over 2
kecamatan in Kabupaten Klaten Kecamatan Prambanan and Kecamatan
Manisrenggo and 2 kecamatan in Kabupaten Sleman-Kecamatan Prambanan and
Kecamatan Kalasa. The designated park area covers a total area of 8100 hectares
within 9 km by 9km around Candi Loro Jonggrang and encompasses ten clusters of
archaeological monuments.
The basic policy for development of the Prambanan area has
been changed to decentralized development in order to be able to take full
advantage of such attractions in the surrounding area as Candi Sewu, Candi
Plaosan and Kraton Hill, although an area of about 77 hectares will be
developed around Candi Loro Jonggrang for concentration of the parks central
functions.
