Location of the temple is approximately 100 km to the southwest of Semarang, 86 km west of Surakarta, and 40 km to the northwest of Yogyakarta. This stupa-shaped temple was founded by Mahayana Buddhists around the year 800 AD during the reign of Shyilendra.

This monument is a model of the universe and built as a sacred place to glorify Buddha as well as functioning as a place of pilgrimage to guide mankind from the world of carnal lust to enlightenment and wisdom according to Buddhism. Pilgrims enter through the eastern side to begin the ritual at the base of the temple by walking around this sacred building clockwise, while continuing up the next steps through three levels of realm in Buddhist cosmology. These three levels are Kāmadhātu (the realm of lust), Rupadhatu (tangible realm), and Arupadhatu (intangible realm). In this journey pilgrims walk through a series of alleys and staircases by witnessing no less than 1,460 beautiful relief panels engraved on the walls and balustrades.
According to historical evidence, Borobudur was abandoned in the 14th century as the influence of Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms on Java and the influx of Islam influenced. The world began to realize the existence of this building since found in 1814 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, then serving as Governor-General of England over Java. Since then Borobudur has undergone a series of rescue and restoration efforts.

In this temple found some statues of Hindu gods in good condition that is Shiwa, Wishnu, Brahma, and Ganesha. However, the original stone of Banon Temple is very little found so that it is impossible to do reconstruction.
