It is said that in Central Java there are two kingdoms, namely, Pengging and Baka.
Pengging was led by Prabu Damar Maya who had a son named Raden Bandung Bondowoso who was brave and powerful.
Meanwhile, the Baka kingdom was led by a giant named Prabu Baka and had a beautiful daughter named Roro Jonggrang.
To expand his power, King Baka tried to conquer the Pegging kingdom.
But in the attack, King Baka was killed by Bandung Bondowoso and in the end, Baka's kingdom was attacked and controlled by the Bandung Bondowoso troops.
At the time of the occupation of the Baka kingdom, Bandung Bondowoso was captivated by the beauty of Roro Jonggrang and wanted to marry her.
However, Roro Jonggrang refused because he did not want to marry the person who killed her father.
After being persuaded by Bandung Bondowoso, Roro Jonggrang agreed to his proposal on the condition that he asked to build a thousand temples in one night.
With his supernatural powers, Bandung Bondowoso built a temple with the help of spirits.
When Rara Jonggrang heard the news that a thousand temples were almost finished, the princess tried to thwart it.
She woke up the palace maids to start pounding rice. She also ordered that the hay bales be burned on the east side. Thinking that morning had come, the spirits ran away in fear. As a result, only 999 temples were built.
After knowing that all this was Rara Jonggrang's trick, Bandung Bondowoso cursed Roro Jonggrang to stone.
The princess turned into the most beautiful statue to fulfill the last temple.
