Jago temple (Indonesian: Candi Jago) is a 13th-century Hindu-Buddhist temple from the Singhasari kingdom in East Java, Indonesia, located about 22 kilometres (14 mi) from Malang. The Nagarakretagama, written in 14th century, describes this temple as Jajaghu (English: "majestic"), and mentions it as one of the temples visited by King Hayam Wuruk during his royal tour across East Java.[2] It is one of several related temples in the region.[3]
After his death in 1268, the Singhasari King Vishnuvardhana was deified here as Shiva, in the form of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara. The temple's bas-reliefs depict scenes from the Kunjarakarna, Parthayajna, Arjunavivaha, and Krishnayana.[2]: 188
The name of Adityawarman appears in 1343 on an image of the Bodhisattva Manjusri.[2]: 232
