Pura Taman Ayun, Hindu temple in Mengwi, Indonesia.

The temple complex includes twenty-seven structures featuring high pagodas dedicated to Hindu deities, surrounded by lotus ponds and fish ponds.

Built in 1634 by I Gusti Ngurah Agung Shakti, the first king of Mengwi, Pura Taman Ayun served as the royal family temple.

The temple follows traditional Balinese architecture with three distinct sections: outer courtyard, middle courtyard, and inner sanctuary, each separated by split gates.

Located 17 kilometers northwest of Denpasar, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 8:00 AM to 6:15 PM with entrance fees of 30,000 IDR.

The entire temple complex sits on a river island, encircled by a large moat that functions as part of the local irrigation system.
