Ratu
Baka: A few km south of Prambanan village. Take a right turn up
the path from the 'Yogya 18 km' signpost. Watch for the sign at
the foot of the ridge. Climb for 15 minutes to reach the entrance
at the top. Ratu Bake lies on the ridge of Gunung Sewu (Thousand
Hills). Once the site of a huge fortified 9th Century kraton-complex,
it overlooks the luxuriant rolling green fields, bamboo groves
and feathery palms of the whole Prambanan Plain. An extraordinarily
tranquil view. This entire plateau is full of ruins, some not
yet completely excavated. There are remains of monumental stone
platforms, exquisite floors of large pillared halls, paved stone
passages, bathing places, gates, stairways, shrines, chambers,
deep cisterns. Once a retreat for royal hermits, a stone discovered
here had an inscription on it which showed that a Sailendra princess
who ruled in Java between the 8th and 9th Centuries was related
to a reigning dynasty of ancient Ceylon. Sinhalese monks lived
in a fortress monastery here more than 1000 years ago.
