#indonesiatrip Visiting Gereja Ayam, also known as the Chicken Church, in Magelang is a fascinating journey into a quirky piece of Indonesian history. This uniquely shaped building, designed to resemble a dove but often seen as a chicken, stands as a testament to the visionary dream of Daniel Alamsjah. Nestled on Rhema Hill, the church offers panoramic views of the surrounding forest and nearby Borobudur. Inside, vibrant murals depict local mythology and history, adding to the site’s mystique. The church, originally intended as a multi-faith prayer house, now serves as a tourist attraction with a small café and souvenir shop. Climbing to the top of the bird’s head provides an unforgettable 360-degree view, making Gereja Ayam a must-visit for those seeking a blend of spirituality, art, and adventure

Located some 1h20min by car from Yogyakarta, Bukit Rhema is a place built for a purpose of welcoming all religions to pray. You can climb atop the rooster’s crown to see nice views of the area. In good weather, you can even see Borobudur Temple which is just 15 mins driver away from the hill. You will need to pay for the jeep that will take you up the steep hill (or you can walk up for free). The entrance ticket to the church includes free tapioca at the cafe and it’s delicious! I would recommend for you to come in the early morning or late afternoon to avoid the heat. #travel #BukitRhema #yogyakarta #indonesia
