Along with the ruins of Burma's Bagan and Cambodia's Angkor Wat, Indonesia's Borobudur is a wonder of Southeast Asian antiquity. From the Harper Collection: "Serene and elegant resort looking out to majestic Borobudur (the largest Buddhist monument in the world) in the lush heartland of Central Java. Lofty limestone walls surround 34 domed guest villas adjacent to the temple-like main building. Javanese art and textiles enhance suites that feature four-pillar platform beds, terrazzo baths with outdoor sunken tubs and garden pavilions (some terraces augmented by plunge pools). The colonnaded, open-air dining room provides panoramic views of the countryside. Amenities include a magnificent 125-foot horizon pool and in-room spa treatments."
