New Regulations for Climbing Borobudur Temple : You Need to Know

Hello all traveler, how are you? I hope everything is fine. When did you last visit Borobudur Temple? Now to go up to Borobudur temple there are new regulations for climbing Borobudur that you all have to pass. Do you know what are the new regulations?

I will mention some of the new regulations for climbing Borobudur according to what I know as a driver who often takes guests to Borobudur Temple. It could be said that once a week I visit Borobudur Temple, but for high season for tourists, I can visit Borobudur Temple 3 times a week.

So the entrance ticket to Borobudur Temple is now moved to the western part of the temple which used to be a football field. After we arrive at the temple parking complex, which is currently in the same area as souvenir sellers. We can go straight to the temple entrance counter. After that we can directly buy tickets at the ticket counter. But I suggest it is better to buy entrance tickets to Borobudur Temple online. Besides knowing the availability of tickets, we can also choose the best time to visit Borobudur Temple. You can search on Google for temple ticket sales which are very easy to access.

I also suggest you choose the first session at 8.30 am or the last session at 3.30 pm. Besides avoiding hot weather, we can also adjust our schedule to visit other tourist attractions. Oh ya, now there are 8 visit sessions to Borobudur Temple starting at 8.30 am to 3.30 pm. After we buy the ticket, we immediately go to the waiting area for the shuttle car. Which will take you to the next counter. That the place to exchange sandals specifically for going up to the temple called Upanat.

Apart from the sandal exchange counter, next to it there is also a place to pick up the serial number of the guide. Who will accompany and explain during the tour at Borobudur Temple. After that you can go to the waiting room. The officer will call according to the guide number sequence and after that you will be taken to Borobudur Temple. One guide will accompany approximately 20 tourists.

You are given about 1 hour with the guide at the top of the Borobudur Temple. After that you can spend time enjoying the temple according to your wishes, but on the temple ground. After everything is finished, you return to the waiting room for the shuttle car which will take you to the exit. You can meet your guide or driver at the exit of the temple and can continue your tour to another place. This is more or less my explanation of the new regulations for climbing Borobudur Temple. If there is a lack of information, I apologize because I am only a driver who takes guests to Borobudur Temple. Thank you very much, hopefully it’s useful. Happy holidays!
