Umbul Temple
Umbul Temple () is a Mataram-era Hindu temple in Kartoharjo, Grabag, Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. It consists of numerous stones around two bathing pools which derive their water from a spring. Thought to have been built in the 9th century as a bathing and resting place for the King of Mataram, it was abandoned in the early 11th century but rediscovered by the 19th century. The temple complex, considered a Cultural Property of Indonesia, is open to tourists – including bathers and pilgrims.
==Description==
The Umbul temple complex has two rectangular bathing areas, a larger upper pool (measuring ) and a smaller lower pool (measuring ). The warm, green-tinted water, which is derived from a spring, flows from the large pool into the smaller one through a long water duct.
Around the pools is a garden, as well as various stones, including some in the shape of ''lingga'' and ''yoni''. In 1876, the Dutch scholar R.H.T. Friederich proposed that there may have been two temples at the site, although no bases have been discovered. His proposal of two temples is supported by similarities in the carving of the stones and reliefs, suggesting that they were not part of the same temple. An original wall lies some east of the bathing pool.
Various artefacts have been found at Umbul, including religious sculptures. Statues found include two of Ganesha, two of Durga, and one of Agastya. In a 1923 inventory, N.J. Krom wrote that a garuda with a human body had been found as well.
