Pura Penataran Sasih, Ancient Hindu temple in Pejeng village, Indonesia

The temple features ornate stone gates, detailed carvings, and traditional Hindu architectural elements spread across multiple courtyards with prayer spaces.

Built in 1266, Pura Penataran Sasih served as the central temple of the Pejeng Kingdom from 1293 to 1343, marking its significance in regional power.

The temple holds a collection of Hindu sculptures from the 10th to 12th centuries, relocated from various locations across Bali for preservation.

Located 27 kilometers north of Denpasar, the temple opens from 11:00 AM to 5:30 PM Monday through Friday, requiring modest dress for entry.
