Cultural-Tour, Kidal & Jago Temple.

A trip to 12th century will introduce you to the beauty of the Kidal Temple and Jago Temple in 

T U M P A N G, about 20km east Malang. Temple or in bahasa Indonesia, C A N D I , is one of the most valuable Indonesia's cultural heritage. Two reputable kingdoms in Malang region in the earlier centuries, Singasari and Kanjuruhan, had several temples left behind us as a reminder. Reminder of their glory and their great culture.

The elder temple, Candi Kidal in Kidal village, was built to commemorate their beloved King Anusapati on his 12th year-dead. Another temple, Candi Jago, was built about 50 years after, by his son. The stone-carvings in its walls will show you more about their habit, tradition etc.

So, are you ready for this cultural trip?
