Loro Jonggrang


Once upon a time, there was a kingdom named Prambanan. The people lived peacefully. However, soon their happy lives were disturbed by Pengging Kingdom. The king, Bandung Bondowoso, wanted to occupy Prambanan. The war between Prambanan and Pengging could not be avoided. Prambanan lost the war and led by the new king, Bandung Bondowoso. Pengging could win the war because Bandung Bondongwoso had a supernatural power. His soldiers were not only humans but also genies.

The king of Prambanan had a beautiful daughter. Her name was Loro Jonggrang. Bandung Bondowoso fell in love with her and wanted to marry her. "If you want to marry me, you have to build a thousand of temples in just one night," said Loro Jonggrang. Bandung Bindowoso agree, then he asked the genies to help him. Then all those genies worked hard to build the 1.000 temples.

Meanwhile, Loro Jonggrang heard from the lady-inwaiting that the building of 1.000 temples was almost finished. And then she had a great idea. She asked all the ladies-inwaiting to help her. Because Loro Jonggrang did not want to merry Bandung Bondowoso. The idea from Loro Jonggrang is burning the straw and make some noise by pounding the mortar. Then the genies will think that sun is going to rise and they will run away.

Bandung Bondowoso was angry. He knew Loro Jonggrang just tricked him. Bacause Bandung Bondowoso was made 999 tempels, so with his supernatural power, Bandung Bondowoso made Loro Jonggrang the one-thousandth temple. Until now, the temple is still standing in Prambanan area, Central Java. And the temple is named Loro Jonggrang temple.




Moral value : Don’t break the promise with anyone. Don't be a greedy man. Don't be sneaky to others.
