Ratu Boko is located about 3 km south of Prambanan Temple. The Ratu Boko area is located on a hill with an altitude of ± 195.97 m above sea level. The Ratu Boko site is actually not a temple, but the ruins of a kingdom. Therefore, Ratu Boko Temple is often also called Kraton Ratu Boko. It is called Kraton Boko, because according to legend the site is the palace of Ratu Boko, Lara Jonggrang's father. It is estimated that the Ratu Boko site was built in the 8th century by the Buddhist Syailendra Dynasty, but was later taken over by the Hindu Mataram kings. The change of 'owner' caused the Kraton Boko building to be influenced by Hinduism and Buddhism.
