Amanjiwo – A Sacred Escape in the Shadow of Borobudur
Nestled in Central Java’s fertile plains, where mist rolls over rice terraces and banyan trees line the horizon, Amanjiwo rests in quiet reverence of Borobudur — the world’s largest Buddhist monument. Just beyond the sacred geometry of the temple, this limestone sanctuary invites guests to step into a slower, more meaningful rhythm.
Where Architecture Meets Spirit
Inspired by Borobudur’s concentric design, Amanjiwo is built from local paras stone, its central rotunda surrounded by pathways, reflecting pools, and colonnades. Suites radiate outward like a mandala, each offering tranquil views of the Menoreh Hills or the temple itself.
Features include:
- Four-pillar king beds on raised platforms
- Private outdoor pavilions and plunge pools
- Stone baths and open-air lounging spaces
- Suites facing Borobudur through groves of palm and tamarind
All stays include:
- Airport transfers from Yogyakarta International
- Daily breakfast and afternoon tea
- In-room snacks and non-alcoholic drinks
- Daily yoga and optional cultural lectures
- Shuttle service to Borobudur upon request
Immersive Paths through Java
Amanjiwo’s Cultural Trails package invites guests to connect deeply with Javanese life, tradition, and spirituality. Spread across three nights, this journey blends intimate rituals and creative expression with the landscape’s quiet beauty.
Sample inclusions:
- Private sunrise visit to Borobudur Temple
- Guided Aksara Jawa calligraphy session
- Traditional Javanese blessing ceremony
- Cooking class or valley hike among ancestral temples
- Morning bike tour to a local market
- Breakfast in a secluded rice field bale
This is cultural immersion — not as performance, but as quiet participation.
