Bubrah Temple is located in Dukuh Bener, Bugisan Village, Prambanan District, Klaten Regency, Central Java. Bubrah Temple is still included in the Prambanan Temple area. This temple is made of andesite stone with a rectangular plan and measuring 12 x 12 meters which was very damaged when it was discovered.

This temple is called Bubrah if we take it from Javanese which means badly damaged where this temple only has ruins as high as 2 meters and also with the remaining walls that are still standing around it. Until finally a restoration was carried out which was able to reconstruct the temple as it was originally. The establishment of the Bubrah temple is believed to be almost the same as the Lumbung temple that I previously posted, this temple is a unity in a Buddhist-style mandala.

This worship complex was built by Rakai Panangkaran who is known as the Sailendra Wangsa Tilaka or the pearl of the Sailendra family. Rakai Panangkaran was a leader of the Sailendra dynasty who converted from Shiva or Hinduism, then he was ordered by his father to become a Buddha. And he became a very devout Buddhist.

Rakai Panangkaran also built this temple as an offering to the goddess Tara. In addition, the Sari temple and Sewu temple were also built. However, when all the sacred buildings were completed, Rakai Panangkaran had passed away. The inauguration was then continued by his successor, Rakai Panaraban.

Bubrah Temple is a single building facing east, just like the Prambanan temple complex which also faces east. Bubrah Temple, as quoted from the Purpupur report published by Central Java (there is an information board right in front of the temple fence), has a uniqueness that is not possessed by other Buddhist temples. For example, it does not have several other small temples in its yard, like the Lumbung temple.

There is also another uniqueness, namely: the lotus garden decoration motif that fills the base under the padmasana on the dhiyani Buddha. Decorative motifs also adorn other areas on the feet, body, roof and balustrade. One typical decorative motif on the Bubrah temple is the flower ceplok decoration that fills the outer balustrade.

Although it is no longer complete, the beauty of its past can still be traced. This decorative motif is now also used as a typical batik motif for the Bubrah temple and is produced by local residents for souvenirs.

Another interesting decoration can also be seen on the jaladwara which functions as a water drainage channel. The jaladwara is depicted as a creature with fangs, has a maned trunk and is curled up in an open mouth position.

Of course, the beauty of the Bubrah temple is now very elegant. It can be seen that even though it only has one building, the sturdy building can be used by local Buddhists to enter the temple to pray.
