Attributes contained here is referring to an area of ​​the township. But still, the experts are still difficult to identify, whether it is a royal parks, palaces, castle, or temple.
Ratu Boko feature 3 levels, each of which is separated by a stone wall and castle. To reach the first terrace, we had to pass through a great gate built in 2 phases. In the west of this terrace there is a fort or Lime Stone Temple (Temple of Limestone). Named Lime Stone Temple because he was made of limestone. The distance is approximately 45 m from the first gate.
Second and first terraces separated by walls andelit. The second terrace can be achieved after passing through the gate at paduraksa which consists of a 3 door. Larger door (Main Gate) is in the middle, flanked by two smaller gates.
Second and third terraces separated by limestone fortress and walls andelit. To get into the third terrace, we had to pass through gate 5, where the most central gate larger in size when compared to other gates that flank 4.

In the third terrace (patio largest) was centered remnants. Here we can find, among others, Hall (Meeting Room). The foundation of this pavilion measuring 20 m long, 20 m wide and 1.25 m high, is located in the north of this terrace.
While in the south, we will find the foundation Pringgitan, measuring 20 m long, 6 m wide and 1.25 m high. Both the pavilion and pringgitan, dikelingi by a fence with a length of 40 m, width 36 m, and 3 m high. This fence is equipped with a 3-roofed gate to the north, south, and west. The three pieces were made to climb up the ladder to the foundation.
To the east of the pavilion, there Swimming Baths complex surrounded by a rectangular fence. The complex consists of 3 groups. The first group, consisting of 3 rectangular pools. Two of which extends from north to south, and the two are separated by a gate. The second group consists of 8 circular pool that is divided into 3 rows.

In addition, there is also a princess (Princess Palace or Shelter), which included a pool rectangle measuring 31 x 8 m2 surrounded by a fence. This fence has two gates, masng respectively located in the southwest and northeast. Approximately 60 m from the gate, we could see the ruins of rocks, but the floor is still good condition. Basically a square measuring 20 x 20 m.

In addition to these places, there are many ruins that can be found in Ratu Boko, such as the ruins Cave Man (Male Cave) measuring 3.5 m long, 3 m wide and 1.5 m high, and a cave smaller again, Cave Women (Female Cave).
Ratu Boko has yielded many artifacts, including statues, Hindu statues either (Durga, Ganesha, Garuda, phallus and yoni), as well as Buddha statues (three unfinished Dhyani Buddhas). In addition, also found ceramics and some inscriptions.
One of the inscriptions found are inscriptions Siwagraha. This inscription mentions the battle between King Balaputra and Rakai Pikatan. Having lost the war, Balaputra escape and build a stronghold in the foothills of Ratu Boko.

There has also been discovered five fragments lettered inscriptions and Sanskrit Prenagari, Although not complete, this inscription can still be read. Content related to the establishment of a shrine Awalokiteswara, one Buddhisatwa in Buddhism, especially Mahayana Buddhism. Judging from the form of the letters, the inscriptions from the 8th century AD.
In addition, also found three lettered inscriptions in Old Javanese Sanskrit verse form. Two of them load in 778 Saka or 856 AD, which contains the establishment and phallus phallus Kerttiwasa Triyambaka on the orders of King Kumbhaya. While the other contains the inscription on the orders of King stance Kalasodbhawa phallus.

WELCOME TO JOGYAKARTA
Another inscription found in Ratu Boko is a Sanskrit inscription in Java, and an inscription on a gold plate.
Although so many and varied remains of buildings found there, until now Boko function is still unknown. Some believe that that Ratu Boko is a convent, or a place of rest and recreation.
Inscriptions found were unlikely to be used as a source to find out the function of the temple on this one. The writings that were found there only shows that Boko there in the century between 8-9. Inscriptions from the 8th century buildings generally contain sacred Buddhist establishment, while the 9th century shrine contains the Hindu establishment once. But because there are no inscriptions that explicitly mentions the function of any existing building, then Boko remain a mystery until now.

History of Indonesian tourism


Indonesia's tourism history is longer than the age of the Republic. When Indonesia was proclaimed, August 17, 1945, several tourist destinations are relatively well known. This is thanks to the establishment of a sort of council travel, Vereeniging Toeristenverkeer (VT) in 1910 in Batavia (see Dieny Ferbianty, History of Tourism of Indonesia, Master Program, ITB, Bandung, 2007). And VT makes guidebook India-Netherlands first time, in English, the contents of the tourist areas in Java, Bali, Lombok, Sumatra, Toraja (South Sulawesi).

Dutch East Indies tourism increasingly popular among Europeans, meruang after a weekly newspaper published on tourism, Java Tourist Guide, 1923. In addition to articles about area attractions, this paper also informs train travel, hotels, and there is also a kind of practical learning the local language. Some hotels also publishes travel guides for one site, for example, Dieng Mountains travel guides, travel guides West Java, and others.



It can be said when it is a complete tourist infrastructure already: there is tourist board level "national" which has branches in a number of areas, there are media tours, hotels, tourist associations - for example Garut Tourist Association, the Association of Tourist Magelang (see Dieny Ferbianty: 2007). The travel agency offers tours are springing up since then. But all of that mess so the Japanese invaded Indonesia. Invaders from Asia's only one goal: to win the Pacific War. Anything other infrastructure used for wars, including art that used propaganda Greater East Asia, including. world tours with, among others, changing the hotel into hostel even army hospital. Moving from the era of the Republic of Indonesia berdiri.Meski when the new republic was in full respect of aggression Dutch struggle to colonize Indonesia again boarded by the Allies, the government does not forget tourism. Slowly restored everything from hospitality to transportation, from the organization to the school tours. A MICE event, especially conference, arguably directly or indirectly stimulate the development of tourism in Indonesia: Asian-African Conference in Bandung in 1955. At least the conference committee should take the delegates to several tourist sites around Bandung. Clearly, after this conference Tourisme Foundation of Indonesia, a nonprofit that aims to stimulate a world tour through the streets Indonesia: cooperation with the press, with tourist agencies other countries, with the immigration and customs, with the foreign ministry. Cooperation aims to facilitate all matters related to tourism, such as visas. Eight years later, in 1963, put in tourist affairs structural institutions, become part of the ministry of land, postal, telecommunications, and tourism. In Indonesia this is the first time to host the PATA (Pacific Asia Travel Association). The next world tour structural administered by officials, with or not included the word "tourism" dalarm ministry. In 1988 tourism was in front of the ministry of tourism, postal, and telecommunications. And in 2000 tourism became united with the culture ministry of culture and tourism. It should be noted, though related to the geography of tourist destinations, perwisataan dalarn policy is unaffected by the distribution of a change of the province. In 1945 Indonesia was only divided into eight provinces' (Sumatra, West Java, Central Java, East Java, Lesser Sunda, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and Maluku). Then divided the province from year to year. In 1950 there were 11 provinces; 1956, 15; 1957, 17: in 1958, 20; in 1959, 20; in 1960, 21; 1967, 25; 1969, 26: in 1976, 27; in 1999, remains 27 provinces (Independent East Timor, Maluku and Maluku and expanded into North Maluku province), at 2000.32, and in 2002, 33 provinces


So what is the challenge in the largest archipelago tourist diduniai this? Indonesia consists of over 13 466 thousand islands, with a total of more than 6,360 coastal miles. from Sabang to Merauke are more than 1,120 ethnic groups. It's an untold wealth in relation to marine tourism and culture. Plus hills and mountains, vast tourist tertebar alampun. With such a wealth management problems in a real live and work hard to maintain, manage, develop, and promote Indonesian tourism in all directions. So that it is formulated by the National Tourism Board in 1969 could be achieved. Tourist Board to formulate, among others tourism "and generate foreign exchange income, business opportunities and employment opportunities, and encourage other industrial enterprises," also to "promote friendship and brotherhood nationally and internationally."
