Yogyakarta, located in the center of Java, Indonesia, is a cultural and educational center with a population of more than one million people. Among them there are twenty thousand Chinese. Borobudur, the Buddhist Monument, and Prambanan, a Hindu temple compound, are the tourists' favorites among the many historical sites.
