In this legend, King Balitung fell in love with a princess named Roro Jonggrang. However, Roro Jonggrang rejected the king's proposal. Angry and hurt, King Balitung asked the gods for help to curse Roro Jonggrang. As punishment, Roro Jonggrang was obliged to build a thousand temples in one night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"\">Roro Jonggrang asked the jinns to help her. The jinn managed to build 999 temples before the cock crowed, signaling the arrival of dawn. The beleaguered King Balitung then scattered rice around the temples, so the jinn thought they had finished building 1000 temples.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"\">An upset Roro Jonggrang then cursed King Balitung into stone. This incident is believed to be the cause of the formation of the 1000th temple, now known as Candi Roro Jonggrang.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"\">Interesting Facts About Prambanan Temple:<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span class=\"\">Prambanan Temple Was Once Buried in the Ground:<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"\"> When Mount Merapi erupted, volcanic ash blanketed the area <span data-huuid=\"11598709157526433586\"><mark class=\"QVRyCf\">This temple<\/mark><\/span> and its surroundings.
