Why go
Prambanan is a Hindu temple compound that InJourney Destination Management, the state-owned company that runs it for visitors, dates to the mid-ninth century and the Sanjaya dynasty, and describes as dedicated to the Trimurti of Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma. InJourney's history page says the compound has three tiered courtyards: an outer yard, a middle courtyard once filled with hundreds of smaller shrines, many now ruined, and the inner court where the Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu temples stand, with the Ramayana carved around them. The company's head office is on the Yogya-Solo road in Prambanan, Sleman, and its Prambanan page links to online ticket purchase. This record is the main Prambanan compound, not the World Heritage group 'Prambanan Temple Compounds', which Wikidata keeps as a separate item, and not the Prambanan districts. InJourney lists its Ramayana performance as a separate destination.
