Brahma Temple

The Brahma Temple is the twin temple of the Vishnu Temple. It is located to the south of the Shiva Temple. It is dedicated to Brahma, the god of creation in Hinduism. Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are also called the three main gods. Brahma's mount is a peacock, and his spouse is a goddess of wisdom and eloquence, so Brahma is often regarded as the god of wisdom. Only a few Hindus worship Brahma, most Hindus pray to Shiva, and only two of the more than 4,000 Hindu temples in India are dedicated to Brahma. It can be seen how precious the Brahma Temple in Prambanan is. The temple's periphery is carved with scenes from the Indian epic "Ramayana". It also has an amazing mouth-like entrance. In the inner hall there is a four-headed statue of Brahma, the creator god.
