 Roro Jonggrang

Long time ago, there was a kingdom named Prambanan. All the people of Prambanan lived
peacefully. But then, Prambanan kingdom was attacked and occupied by the Pengging
kingdom. Prambanan then was ruled by Bandung Bondowoso of Pengging kingdom. He was
a mean king. He also had great supernatural power. His soldiers were not only humans, but
also genies.

The king of Prambanan had a beautiful daughter named Loro Jonggrang. Bandung Bondowoso
fell in love with her and wanted to marry her. “You’re very beautiful. Would you be my
queen?” asked Bandung Bondowoso. Loro Jonggrang was shocked. She didn’t like Bandung
Bondowoso because he was a mean person. She wanted to refuse, but she afraid that Bandung
Bondowoso would be angry and endangered the people of Prambanan. Then, she came up with
a plan. “If you want to marry me, you have to build a thousand temples for me in just one
night,” said Loro Jonggrang. “What? That’s impossible!” said Bandung Bondowoso. But he
did not give up. He consulted with his advisor. “Your Majesty can asked the genies to help
built the temples,” said the advisor.

So, Bandung Bondowoso summoned his entire genies soldier and commanded them to help
him built a thousand temples. The genies worked in unbelievable speed. Meanwhile, Loro
Jonggrang heard from her servant that the building of a thousand temples was almost finished.
She was so worried. But again, she came up with a great idea. She asked all of her servants to
help her. “Please prepare a lot of straw and mortar. Please hurry up!” said Loro Jonggrang.
“Burn the straw and make some noise pounding the mortar, quickly.” All those servants did
what Loro Jonggrang ordered them; burning straw and pounding the mortar, making the genies
think that the sun is going to rise.

“It’s already dawn. We have to go,” said the leader of the genies to Bandung Bondowoso. All
the genies immediately stopped their work and ran for cover from the sun, which they afraid
of. They didn’t know that the light was from the fire that burning the straw, not from the sun.

Bandung Bondowoso can’t stop the genies from leaving. He was angry. He knew Loro
Jonggrang had just tricked him. “You cannot fool me, Loro Jonggrang. I already have 999
temples. I just need one more temple. Now, I will make you the one-thousandth temple.” He
pointed his finger to Loro Jonggrang and said some mantras. Magically, Loro Jonggrang’s
body turned into stone. Until now, the temple is still standing in Prambanan area, Central Java.
And the temple is called Loro Jonggrang temple.
