Andong (Horse Carriage）
Even after cars and motorbikes became main transportations, we had have Andong everywhere as citizen’s important transportation in Java Island for a while. But as time went by, Andong had disappear one by one, nowadays Andong remains in just a few towns.
And Borobudur is one of the towns where still hava this nostalgic transportation, not only for the tourists, but also still as citizen’s transportaion.
You can find Andong around Borobudur Temple Park and Borobudur market near bus terminal.

VW (Volkswagen Classic Car）
We can say VW is the most popular vehicle among tourists in Borobudur now.
In only Borobudur, there are around 120 cars that were imported from 1960s to 1970s in Java Island. After long-sleep in their garages in all over Java Island, they got fixed well and came back under the sunshine here with its cute classic car form and vivid-colored body.
