📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Gedongsongo is one of national heritage located in Central Java. There are 5 temples in the areas and the temples became an attractive place for holiday, especially for regional tourist. This temple also surrounded by many intangible heritages such as traditional dances, traditional music, and festival. However, some aspects still need to be improved, such as; the environment awareness, socio economic background, sanitation and hygiene of the local people. Most of the locals are earning money from the vegetables garden. The increasing number of visitors each year not only contributed in littering, but also vandalism on the temple, as it become one of the big problem on the heritage preservation issues.
