Geographical localization:
Surroundings: In lower middle land, almost at the top of Mt Ijo, on a steep slope. This impressive complex is located on the upper northwestern slope of Mount Ijo, a 427m high hill that is part of Gunung Kidul. The summit of Mount Ijo, covered with trees, appears just behind the temple, though not exactly in its axis. The localization offers a breathtaking view of the Opak plain. From candi Ijo, the Gunung Kidul hills seem to form a mountainous crescent overlooking the Opak valley, with the Sorogeduk at its feet.
Religion: Hindu Terraced compound; sanctuary type 2; facing west; square main shrine; enclosure.
State of preservation: The main temple has been restored up to its superstructure. The secondary shrines facing it are currently under restoration. However, most of the structures of the lower terraces are reduced to their bases.
