If you wonder what to do near the famous Borobudur temple... Here I give you some suggestion:
1. City tour in Jogjakarta since they are most famous for their local food in Malioboro Street and also shop some batik clothes.
2. Go for a rafting. There are 3 main river in Magelang: Progo, Serayu, and Elo. For a beginner I suggest Elo river
I went for a rafting in Elo River by

We start from Restaurant Kampung Ulu, just 1 km from Borobudur temple. I and my friends start from 9am and finish the course in 12.30 We still have a free lunch with only IDR 750.000 all in for 6 persons include 55 photos during our fun trip. Max capacity for one boat is 6 person, 7 include the guide. We saw another boat have only 4 person. We get the photos inside the CD after we lunch. How fast!!! Kinda cheap getaway and will try another river soon! ^____^
After finishing the trip, we went to Artos Mall. Small shopping center but good enough to have some scoop of ice cream :D
