2 km from my parents' home, there is a hindu site, called "gedhong songo". "gedhong" literally means building and "songo" means nine. so "it means the nine building. so it is called "gedhong songo" because there are 9 temples in a site. it is hindu temple which buried for centuries and the found by the Dutch in dutch era. some researcher said it was built in 9-10th century. the scenery is beautiful because it is in a mountain and there is a lake in the southeast side of it.
