This event takes place online. There were 6 participants, 2 of whom were from Palestine and 4 of them were from the United Kingdom and accompanied by Buddies.

The outing event to Prambanan Temple aims to provide entertainment and to refresh the minds of the participants who have participated in many learning activities for 5-6 days a week. In addition to being an entertainment event for the participants, this activity was carried out to introduce Hindu religious culture in Yogyakarta through the Ramayana Ballet. Not only has a magnificent building, Prambanan Temple is also full of inherent historical value and does not escape from one of the historical parts in Yogyakarta.

The participants of the 3rd IGoPSS were very enthusiastic about the Ramayana Ballet because it was their first time watching an entertainment program as well as learning history through theater media. In addition, they were very amazed because they were presented with a very interesting show and filled with stunning attractions. “I really enjoyed this show, even I didn’t feel sleepy watching the show. Besides, this is a new thing for me because, where I come from (United Kingdom) there are no educational entertainment programs like this. watch the cinema, go to the mall, or go to a cafe. Therefore, I am very amazed by this show,” said Aleksander Franciszkiewics from Stanford University. (ARP)
