Why go

Candi Sukuh is a Hindu temple built in the 15th century, as the Central Java provincial tourism office describes it, in Karanganyar Regency. The office's page mentions its lingga and yoni and its reliefs of the Garudeya, Sudamala and Dewa Ruci stories. XTOUR records it as an archaeological site; no source read states whether it is used for worship today. It is in Karanganyar Regency, not in Surakarta, and is a separate record from Candi Cetho, also in Karanganyar.
