Kedulan temple (; ) is the ruin of a 9th-century Hindu candi located not far from Sambisari temple. The temple is in Tirtomartani village, Kalasan subdistrict, Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The style and architecture bear striking similarities to the nearby Sambisari temple. And just like Sambisari, the temple compound is buried around below the present surface, as the result of lava flow from the last eruption of Mount Merapi in the north.
The style and layout are quite similar to Sambisari temple; however, Sambisari temple faces west and is located around to the southwest.
