A Legend You Can Walk Through—Then Watch Come Alive

If you're visiting Prambanan Temple, you may encounter the mysterious Durga statue—believed to be Princess Roro Jonggrang, turned to stone by a curse. But what's the full story?

This powerful new cultural performance by the producers of the MURI-awarded Ramayana Ballet Purawisata brings that ancient legend to life with emotional depth and stunning theatricality. Through elegant Javanese dance, symbolic costumes, & an evocative musical score, Roro Jonggrang: Reincarnation of Love retells a tale of love, betrayal, & transformation—woven into the very soul of Prambanan.

Set in a semi open-air amphitheater just minutes from Malioboro, this experience invites you to enjoy:

- A moving live performance under the stars
- Optional royal Javanese buffet dinner in a Joglo pavilion
