The story of Stupa Ngobaran Beach, Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia

Very strange is not it, if the building is found not Java Javanese culture. A location, if the observant eye can certainly conclude similar to the Ulu Watu in Bali. Hindu distinctive buildings so thick at this location. Statues of gods, to form the stupa as bringing us to the island of Bali. Ngobaran Beach, which is in the South Mountain is the proof.

The beach is said to be a place of King UB V burn himself with his wife. Narrated, which is the reluctance of King UB last king of Majapahit to diislamkan by anakanya. Raden Patah ayahnnya want to embrace Islam, and would thus reluctant then going feud that eventually her father fled to the south of Yogyakarta.

Shore is King UB eventually burn themselves, with one of his wives. Before burn away The King asked how much she loved, Lowati Dewi said her love for the mountains, while the Bondang Surati her love for black polish. Finally, the King chose Bondan Surati, for love is simple and small not run walu frequently cut. King UB and Bondang Surati delved into the fire.

From the story, then the beach is named Ngobaran, meaning the fire. The beauty of this beach is visible from a towering rock that the top there is a temple building. The beach is also used other faiths to worship his Creator. No one if Uluwatu and Tanah Lot is on the island of Java, and enjoy its beauty.
