Sebetulnya Berapa Kapasitas Pengunjung Candi Borobudur
MAGELANG, KOMPAS.com - Banyak pihak yang menyesalkan perilaku wisatawan, terutama lokal, yang tidak mengindahkan peraturan saat berkunjung ke Candi <a target='_self' class='inner-link-tag' href='https://www.kompas.com/tag/borobudur' style='color:#428bca;'>Borobudur</a> di Kabupaten Magelang
Buktinya salah satu bukti perilaku buruk wisatawan sempat menjadi viral setelah diunggah oleh netizen bernama Katherine Cai di media sosial Facebook. Kecaman warganet bukan tanpa alasan, karena perilaku tersebut bisa berdampak buruk terhadap kelestarian <a target='_self' class='inner-link-tag' href='https://www.kompas.com/tag/candi-borobudur' style='color:#428bca;'>Candi Borobudur</a>
BACA:&nbsp;<a href="https://travel.kompas.com/read/2017/07/04/082400127/jangan.ditiru.kelakuan.buruk.turis.indonesia.di.candi.borobudur" class="inner-link-baca-juga" target="_self">Jangan Ditiru! Kelakuan Buruk Turis Indonesia di Candi Borobudur</a> 
Sebetulnya sudah banyak upaya yang dilakukan pengelola cagar budaya dunia itu untuk mengantisipasi kejadian tersebut
Mulai dari pemasangan rambu-rambu di tangga
dan titik lainnya agar wisatawan tidak menginjak
hingga penempatan petugas keamanan setiap hari
Balai Konservasi Borobudur (BKB) mencatat ada 80 orang petugas keamanan yang berjaga setiap hari di zona I Candi Borobudur
Namun jumlah tersebut dinilai tidak sebanding dengan jumlah wisatawan Candi Borobudur
"Pada libur Lebaran lalu tercatat ada sekitar 56.000 wisatawan dalam sehari
Kami sudah peringatkan melalui pengeras suara atau langsung kepada wisatawan
karena hanya sekitar 5.000 - 6.000 wisatawan," ujar Iskandar M Siregar selaku Kepala Saksi Konservasi BKB
Iskandar tidak memungkiri jika wisatawan mempunyai andil besar dalam upaya pelestaran candi peninggalan dinasti Syailendra abad ke-8 sampai ke-9 itu
BKB telah membuat kajian yang membahas tentang dampak terhadap jumlah wisatawan dengan kerusakan candi
"Candi yang sering diinjak-injak tentu dampaknya semakin besar
batu yang usianya sudah ratusan tahun lalu itu jadi cepat aus
Bayangkan jika ada ribuan manusia setiap hari yang menginjak candi," katanya
Hasil penelitian yang pernah dilakukan pada 2010-2011 itu
membuktikan bahwa persentase keausan sudut tangga mencapai 100 persen dan keausan bidang mencapai 49,15 persen
AP PHOTO / STR / SLAMET RIYADI Mantan presiden AS Barack Obama berjalan menuruni tangga Candi Borobudur saat berwisata di Magelang
Obama berlibur ke Indonesia selama 10 hari dan berencana mengunjungi sejumlah kota
Untuk mengurangi dampak keausan itu, BKB telah memasang lapisan karet di tangga sisi selatan <a target='_self' class='inner-link-tag' href='https://www.kompas.com/tag/candi-borobudur' style='color:#428bca;'>candi Borobudur</a>
Pelapisan ini berfungsi melindungi tangga yang tersusun dari batu andesit itu tidak cepat aus karena diinjak oleh ribuan manusia
"Pelapisan ini juga telah melalui kajian para ahli agar tetap baik dari segi arkeologi
estetika dan kenyamanan wisatawan itu sendiri," tutur Iskandar
pengaturan jumlah wisatawan di atas candi juga telah dibahas oleh para ahli di BKB dan pengelola Taman Wisata Candi Borobudur (TWCB)
Pengaturan jumlah wisatawan itu berdasarkan perhitungan jumlah maksimal individu (carrying capacity) di Candi Borobudur
"Carrying capacity di Candi Borobudur sebanyak 123 orang dalam satu waktu
Sedangkan kapasitas ruang yang ideal untuk halaman candi sebanyak 528 orang dan di area taman sebanyak 10.308 orang," sebut Iskandar
Namun sejauh ini standar tersebut belum diterapkan karena berbagai alasan
karena pembatasan pengunjung merupakan kewenangan Direktorat Warisan dan Diplomasi Budaya Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan RI yang hingga ini belum memberikan keputusan
pembatasan pengunjung masih berbenturan dengan program pariwisata di mana pemerintah menargetkan angka kunjungan wisatawan mencapai 2 juta orang di Candi Borobudur pada 2019 mendatang

Indonesia adalah negara dengan kekayaan kuliner melimpah
Bentang alam mulai pantai hingga pegunungan memberi pengaruh besar kepada cita rasa setiap masakan
Dalam tiap kuliner terdapat penggunaan biodiversitas Nusantara
Berkelindannya aneka bumbu dan rempah beruntai memberi kekuatan rasa bagi tiap kuliner yang dihasilkan
Guru Besar Ilmu dan Teknologi Pangan Universitas Gadjah Mada
Profesor Murdjiati-Gardjito dalam sebuah kesempatan mengatakan
seni dapur di Indonesia itu lebih dari 1.000 jumlahnya
Ditambah sekitar 65 jenis bumbu atau rempah-rempah
Semua merupakan bahan pangan dari bumi Indonesia
&amp; Conservationists of Indonesian Culinary itu
dari data bahan pangan asli Indonesia di atas mampu menghasilkan ribuan kombinasi masakan
Museum Rekor Indonesia (MURI) pada 2014 melansir data di Nusantara ada lebih dari 100 jenis kuliner soto
masakan berkuah dengan kombinasi bumbu dan rempah begitu menggoda selera
kita harus berani mengatakan bahwa Indonesia itu adalah dapur gastronomi dunia paling besar," ujar perempuan 81 tahun itu
Setiap kuliner Indonesia memiliki kisah berbeda karena ikut diperkuat adanya latar sejarah
Melibatkan akulturasi budaya dari berbagai masakan yang dihidangkan sehari-hari
Indonesia Gastronomy Community (IGC) pada 2017 pernah melakukan riset seputar masakan di tanah air
Riset melibatkan pakar-pakar dari Balai Pelestarian Cagar Budaya (BPCB) Jawa Tengah
dan para akademisi Universitas Gadjah Mada serta Universitas Indonesia
Mereka mendapati bahwa terdapat 104 resep kuno Nusantara di 17 relief Candi Borobudur
Resep masakan itu menjadi menu yang disajikan sehari-hari oleh masyarakat era Mataram kuno
resep masakan kicik daging rusa atau nama kunonya kicik mrega berasal dari cerita pada Prasasti Mantayasih I bertahun 907 Masehi dan Prasasti Parada II (865 Saka atau 943 M)
Resep berbahan daging rusa dipotong dadu kecil dicampur bumbu rempah ini terdapat pula pada relief Candi Borobudur
tempat persembahyangan terbesar di dunia bagi umat Buddha
Candi yang kini menjadi warisan dunia itu dibangun sekitar tahun 800-an Masehi pada masa pemerintahan Raja Syailendra
Masakan Nusantara juga berperan dalam misi-misi diplomasi
Berbagai festival kuliner Indonesia acap digelar di penjuru dunia demi mengenalkan kekayaan masakan Nusantara
Menteri Luar Negeri Retno Lestari Priansari Marsudi dalam beberapa kesempatan berkisah
masakan terbaik dunia versi CNN Travel 2021 dan 2017
menteri kelahiran 27 November 1962 itu mengirimkan masakan khas Sumatra Barat tadi untuk membangun dan merawat hubungan dengan sejawatnya
makanan dapat dijadikan soft-power diplomacy
Makanan bisa meningkatkan citra Indonesia di luar negeri serta mendorong industri pangan di tanah air
Ini menjadi penting karena menurut data Badan Pusat Statistik
kontribusi kuliner bagi Produk Domestik Bruto (PDB) nasional pada 2020 merupakan yang terbesar di antara sektor ekonomi kreatif lainnya
Sumbangannya mencapai 41,47 persen atau Rp455,44 triliun dari penerimaan sektor ekraf senilai Rp1.134,9 triliun
Pemerintah kemudian menyiapkan matriks rencana aksi nasional Strategi Kuliner Indonesia yang dicetuskan di Parapat
Pertama adalah Indonesia Spice Up the World (Indonesia Membumbui Dunia)
bumbu-bumbu masakan asli Indonesia diharapkan dapat semakin dikenal dan diminati dunia
rempah menjadi salah satu komoditas unggulan dengan potensi besar di pasar global
Pemasaran produk bumbu dan olahannya perlu ditingkatkan terutama untuk pasar ekspor ke Amerika Serikat
dan sebagian besar Asia termasuk Tiongkok dan India
Hal ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan perekonomian masyarakat hingga ke petani Indonesia sebagai penghasil rempah atau bahan baku bumbu
Kementerian Koordinator bidang Maritim dan Investasi mencatat
bumbu asal Indonesia baru mampu memenuhi 0,67 persen kebutuhan bumbu masakan di Afrika dan sekitar 3,87 persen di Australia
dalam lima tahun terakhir Kementerian Perdagangan mencatat nilai ekspor bumbu
rempah segar dan olahan dari Indonesia naik 2,95 persen
Indonesia pada Januari-Agustus 2021 mengantongi pendapatan USD499,1 juta (Rp7,18 triliun) dari ekspor komoditas di atas atau naik 12,88 persen dibandingkan periode sama 2020
rempah mentah dan olahan tercatat sebesar USD1,02 miliar (Rp14,68 triliun)
hingga 2024 mendatang terjadi peningkatan nilai ekspor sebesar USD2 miliar (Rp28 triliun)
Apalagi Indonesia merupakan negara penghasil rempah terbaik
"Kampanye Indonesia Spice Up The World ini penting untuk membangun national culinary branding
Sehingga citra kuliner kita berbasis pada rempah dan bumbu dapat lebih mendunia
Jangan hanya mengekspor dalam bentuk bahan mentah saja
Tetapi juga dalam bentuk jadi," kata Wakil Presiden Ma'ruf Amin ketika membuka Indonesian Spices Business Forum and Expo World (ISBFE) 2021 di Parapat
Berikutnya adalah Program Gastrodiplomasi Restoran
yakni bagaimana meningkatkan kapasitas restoran Indonesia yang sudah ada di luar negeri sekaligus untuk menambah jumlahnya
hingga 2024 terdapat 4.000 restoran masakan Indonesia di seluruh dunia
Menurut Menteri Pariwisata dan Ekonomi Kreatif Sandiaga Uno seperti dikutip Antara
saat ini di Amerika Serikat terdapat 100-150 restoran menyajikan masakan asal Indonesia
Program terakhir adalah Destinasi Gastronomi atau penguatan gastronomi di dalam negeri untuk menjadi daya tarik wisatawan
Vita Datau dari Indonesia Gastronomy Network mengatakan
gastronomi bukan hanya membahas tentang makanan
Akan tetapi juga kearifan lokal di masyarakat
"Ini bisa mencerminkan budaya dan tradisi di suatu wilayah,&rdquo; ujarnya
kita akan kembali teringat pesan penting salah satu koki terbaik dunia dan gemar berkelana keliling dunia
Menurut koki asli New York yang wafat pada 8 Juni 2018 itu
makanan adalah perpanjangan dari perasaan nasionalisme
dan sejarah dari mana kita berasal dan itu tidak akan pernah terpisahkan.&nbsp;

These two months are usually the peak tourist season for foreign visitors

The enthusiasm of tourists to walk around the temple structure
often makes the visit sessions have to be closed earlier
visit sessions are opened up to eight sessions
because the visit quota has been fulfilled
the opportunity to visit is only opened until the fourth or fifth session or before 14.00
The visit time per session is limited to only 1 hour

She had planned her holiday since June and finally decided to travel with a group of tourists

it is also an agreement with dozens of friends in one group
Martina wants to take a walk up to the temple building
"We want to see the temple buildings first hand
and hear stories related to the Borobudur Temple from the tour guide who will accompany them later," he said
We want to directly see the temple building
and listen to the stories related to Borobudur Temple
The Chairman of the Indonesian Tour Guides Association (HPI) in Magelang Regency
stated that out of the 1,200 people who visited the Borobudur Temple
The high dominance of these visits is estimated to continue during the peak season of foreign tourist visits
has caused problems as many foreign tourists are disappointed that they cannot enter the temple buildings
The disappointment was felt by a group of tourists from China on Sunday
One of the group members even considered breaking through the fence
"Because they were unable to climb up to the temple
one Chinese tourist even planned to visit by breaking through and jumping over the fence," he said
The plan was known and opposed by his friends from the same travel group
The disagreement almost resulted in physical altercations between the tourists within the same group."

A group of foreign tourists from Italy took a photo together before going up to the Borobudur Temple building on Sunday (6/8/2023). Visiting the temple is highly sought after by tourists, especially foreign tourists.
Soni, who is also the Chairperson of the Magelang Regency Tourism Village Forum, said that the limited visit quota was also a complaint to the managers of homestays and inns in the Borobudur area. When they cannot go up to the temple, many foreign tourists swear, grumble, and often express their frustration at the inn. This ultimately makes the atmosphere at the homestay less pleasant.
Soni also became a member of the Sajana group, which consists of tourism activists in Magelang Regency. This group has previously proposed an increase in the quota from 1,200 per person per day to 3,000 to 5,000 people per day to various parties.
A proposal has been submitted to the Magelang District Legislative Council (DPRD) for PT Taman Wisata Candi Borobudur Prambanan and Ratu Boko, as well as the Borobudur World Heritage Museum and Cultural Reserve. However, until now, the proposal has not received any response.
</a>Comprising the remains of some 244 temples
World Heritage–listed Prambanan is Indonesia's largest Hindu site and one of Southeast Asia's major attractions
where eight main and eight minor temples are assembled on a raised platform – an architectural crescendo of carved masonry and staircases
the high note of which is Candi Shiva Mahadeva
Prambanan sits within a large park dotted with lesser temples – a day is needed to do the site justice
building at Prambanan commenced in the middle of the 9th century – around 50 years after Borobudur
Little else is known about the early history of this temple complex
although it’s thought that it may have been built by Rakai Pikatan to commemorate the return of a Hindu dynasty to sole power in Java
The whole Prambanan Plain was abandoned when the Hindu-Javanese kings moved to East Java and
a great earthquake toppled many of the temples
its demise accelerated by treasure hunters and locals searching for building materials
While efforts were made in 1885 to clear the site
it was not until 1937 that reconstruction was first attempted
Most temples have now been restored to some extent
Prambanan was listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site in 1991
Prambanan suffered extensive damage in the 2006 earthquake
hundreds of stone blocks collapsed or were cracked (479 blocks in the Shiva temple alone)
Today the main structures have been restored
but a lot of work remains to be done and parts of the complex are still off limits
is not only the largest of the temples but also the finest
The main spire soars 47m high and the temple is lavishly carved
The ‘medallions’ that decorate its base have a characteristic Prambanan motif – small lions in niches flanked by kalpatura (trees of heaven) and a menagerie of stylised half-human
The vibrant scenes carved onto the inner wall of the gallery encircling the temple are from the Ramayana – they tell how Lord Rama’s wife
The temple’s interior comprises a main chamber at the top of the eastern stairway with a four-armed statue of Shiva the Destroyer
The statue is notable for the fact that this mightiest of Hindu gods stands on a huge lotus pedestal
In the southern cell is the potbellied and bearded Agastya
an incarnation of Shiva as divine teacher; in the western cell is a superb image of the elephant-headed Ganesha
Some people believe that the Durga image is actually an image of the Slender Virgin
was turned to stone by a man she refused to marry
She is still an object of pilgrimage and her name is often used for the temple group
Candi Vishnu touches 33m and sits just north of Candi Shiva Mahadeva
The temple's impressive reliefs tell the story of Lord Krishna
while a four-armed image of Vishnu the Preserver crowns the inner sanctum
Candi Brahma is Candi Vishnu’s twin temple
it is carved with the final scenes of the Ramayana
The spectacular mouth doorway is noteworthy and the inner chamber contains a four-headed statue of Brahma
The park surrounding Prambanan contains a number of lesser-known temples
Originally it was surrounded by four rings of 240 smaller ‘guard’ temples
Outside the compound stood four sanctuaries at the points of the compass
The renovated main temple has finely carved niches around the inner gallery
hire a bike (20,000Rp) or take the toy train or golf cart (20,000Rp) that shuttle visitors back and forth from the exit of Prambanan's main temple site; failing that
it's a pleasant 20-minute walk from the main complex through semi-shaded parkland
Tickets for Prambanan can be purchased online
Options include a combined Prambanan–Kraton Ratu Boko package and a Prambanan–Borobudur discount ticket
Note that the latter is only valid for two days and doesn't cover the extra surcharge to visit at sunrise or sunset

the world’s largest Buddhist temple and a Unesco World Heritage site
but most package tours have the temple listed together with other tourist destinations in Yogyakarta
a nearby province – Prambanan Temple and the famous Malioboro shopping strip
for example – instead of ones in Central Java
Tour operators see this as a win-win solution since Borobudur is currently one of the  Indonesian Tourism Ministry’s four priority destinations – the "4 New Balis" – so both the city and the temple will benefit from being promoted together
the promotion manager of Taman Wisata Candi Borobudur
and Ratu Boko – a state-owned company in charge of managing the three temple complexes – said Yogyakarta is practically the entrance to Borobudur
coming to Yogyakarta airport than to airports in Semarang or Solo
That’s why more tourists go through Yogyakarta instead of Central Java to Borobudur," Jamaludin told The Jakarta Globe at Bali &amp; Beyond Travel Fair in Nusa Dua
Yogyakarta’s Adisucipto Airport is only 40 kilometers away from Magelang
closer than Semarang’s Ahmad Yani Airport (100 km) and Solo’s Adisumarmo Airport (86 km)
Borobudur is the entry point for other tourist destinations in the area
the head of the information services division at Yogyakarta Tourism Office
said local tour operators have always been promoting Borobudur even before it was listed as a priority destination
Now she hopes the world-famous temple will help promote Yogyakarta’s lesser-known destinations
"Borobudur is the priority destination but tourists never stop at a single site
We hope travel agencies can include them in their package tours – not just Borobudur or the Keraton [palaces]
but also less popular destinations in Yogyakarta," Marlina said
She said the number of tourist attractions in Yogyakarta rose by 40 percent in the past year
A total of 67 beaches are now open for public in Gunung Kidul
another district on the southern coast of Java
including the Mangunan Pine Forest and Watu Goyang
Yogyakarta has always been a popular destination for local tourists
but Marlina said there’s still work to be done if the city wants to attract more foreign visitors
more than 4.7 million Indonesians visited Yogyakarta
but there were only around 300,000 overseas tourists
we've had around 270,000-285,000 overseas tourists
and the high season is still not over yet," Marlina said
the quoted number refers to visitors staying at starred hotels
The real number is likely higher considering there are backpackers who prefer to stay at Airbnbs
Marlina said the city has been trying to attract more foreign tourists by doing more media promotion
participating in local and international travel fairs and organizing "fam trips."
travel agents and tour operators to Yogyakarta’s lesser-known destinations so they can spread good news about them
We work together with the Tourism Ministry
the Foreign Affairs Ministry and embassies and consulates in Indonesia and abroad," she said
The <a href="https://whc.unesco.org/en/panasonic">Panasonic</a> Corporation in cooperation with UNESCO Office Jakarta organised a launching ceremony of LED Lighting Installment in <a href="https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/642/">Prambanan Temple Compounds</a> on 17 December 2014
The ceremony was attended by more than 100 participants representing different stakeholders including the National and Local Government
The ceremony marked the start of two main activities within this framework
namely the illumination of Prambanan Temple with the Panasonic-supported LED lamps
as well as the project entitled ‘Supporting Sustainable Development at the Borobudur and Prambanan World Heritage Sites through Youth Livelihood Development and Green Technologies,’ of which the latter is launched on 18 December 2014 in Borobudur
conducted by UNESCO and Borobudur Conservation Office with the support from Panasonic
Officially listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1991
the Prambanan Temple previously used halogen lamps to illuminate the compounds
These conventional lamps are now replaced by a total of 16 LED light projectors which will substantially reduce energy consumption
and their long life can also significantly lower maintenance costs
The green technologies introduced in this partnership with Panasonic align well with UNESCO’s long-term objective of safeguarding World Heritage Sites
while strengthening the environmental sustainability of the sites
The LED installation will enable promotion of the site and preservation of the surrounding environment
The launching ceremony also showcased different local producers and craftsmen from Borobudur and Prambanan area as the beneficiaries of this cooperation between UNESCO and Panasonic
UNESCO supports the sustainable development in both World Heritage Sites through different activities
including Youth Forum to raise awareness in conservation and World Heritage protection as well as education in cultural activities aimed at sustainable development and business development activities for a variety of different creative industries commodities in Borobudur and Prambanan
the Director and Representative of UNESCO Office Jakarta
delivered his remarks emphasizing on the importance of multilateral partnership
and non-governmental organisations to achieve the objective of safeguarding World Heritage sites and empowerment of local livelihood
He also stated that this project is a good example of showing how public-private-community sector can cooperate to promote unity in diversity and cultural literacy
The event was a follow up on the four-party-signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)
signed by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia
Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Office in Jakarta
the four parties are committed to promote ”conservation and awareness raising for the protection of UNESCO World Heritage Sites” and ” education and cultural activities aimed at sustainable development for young people in the vicinity of the Borobudur

The Petronas Twin Towers are a point of pride for any Malaysian
Known as the tallest twin towers in the world
these two resolute twins mark an iconic visage for anyone who visit Malaysia
Malaysians aren&#8217;t the only ones fascinated with twin towers
netizens have been abuzz about a certain lookalike of the Petronas Twin Towers found in Aceh
While Malaysians are certain it&#8217;s a flattering replica of our own towers here
Indonesians reportedly alleged that it was inspired by something else instead
Facebook group ASEAN Skyline took to their socials to share some interesting facts about the supposed replica in Indonesia
&#8220;The twin tower is without a doubt so spectacular that its replica has been built in a whole other country,&#8221; they wrote
&#8220;The Petronas Twin Towers recently appeared in Lhok Seudu Beach
Photos uploaded showed that while the towers aren&#8217;t as tall as the ones in Malaysia
they do have an uncanny resemblance to the twin towers here
ASEAN Skyline added that some Indonesians denied that the replica was inspired by the Petronas Twin Towers
&#8220;(They claim it&#8217;s inspired) from Candi Prambanan
most Malaysians insisted that the replica is a &#8220;friendly gesture from Indonesians&#8221; and &#8220;a symbol of friendship between two countries&#8220;
This sentiment was also echoed in the comments
&#8220;Thank you so much Indonesia,&#8221; one comment read
&#8220;Such an honour.&#8221; Another said: &#8220;It&#8217;s proof Indonesia (looks up to) Malaysia
Malaysia is Indonesia&#8217;s idol.&#8221;
a few weren&#8217;t too happy with the imitation
&#8220;No authenticity and creativity,&#8221; one criticised
the statement will change (to) KLCC is Indonesia&#8217;s creation
there were some who took the news with a sense of humour
&#8220;All towers in this world belong to Indonesia.&#8221; Another joked about getting the chance to take a pic with the towers
as they missed the opportunity with the original
Others were more concerned with Indonesians allegedly claiming the replica was inspired by Candi Prambanan
There&#8217;s a bridge&#8230;&#8221; a netizen pointed out with another asking Indonesians for an explanation about said bridge
One comment even read: &#8220;Don&#8217;t pretend
it&#8217;s just shaming Indonesia&#8217;s name
(We&#8217;ll) just be laughed at by Malaysians.&#8221;
replicas of buildings aren&#8217;t exactly rare
there have been copies of other well-known structures
it&#8217;s certainly a delight to see so many enjoying visiting the structure
