Candi Cangkuang



One of the few stone Hindu temples found in West Java. Dating from the 8th century some of its stones were found to have been carved into tombstones for the Islamic Cemetery. Most of this temple is restored and not original. It is no longer a place of worship since almost all of West Java is highly Muslim.
