http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com Guide leads our group around and up the various layers of Borobudur to the so-called "Lucky Buddha." Men must reach inside the bell and touch Buddha's shoulder or hand while women must touch Buddha's foot while making a wish for non-material things. Not easy to do. You need long arms and also have to be extremely careful not to step back and fall off Borobudur. Back down and through the rows of stalls selling souvenirs and sellers roaming the grounds trying to make that last minute sale. With scenic Mt. Merapi in the background and lush foliage, Borobudur is an impressive and spectacular site. Please don't forget to Subscribe, Share and Like. Thanks.
