Watch wishes float to the sky in Borobudur
The sun is setting. It melts into countless colors of the sky. You’re standing in the biggest Buddhist temple in the world. As the dusk falls, monks and devotees gather in prayer and meditation, filling the air with a sense of peace.
When darkness finally sets in, participants light and release thousands of paper lanterns into the sky. Their warm golden glow against the silhouette of Borobudur creates one of the most unforgettable sights you’ll ever see.
The lanterns float upward, carrying prayers and wishes. A mix of serenity, joy, and awe washes over. Here is a chance for self-reflection and mindfulness. A once in a lifetime kind of experience, that leaves visitors feeling inspired, connected, and at peace. Will you take it with us?
