Hindu temple in Dili

The Pura Girinatha temple displays traditional Indonesian religious architecture with multiple compounds connected through decorated gates between its three distinct ceremonial zones.

The establishment of this Hindu temple represents the extension of Balinese religious practices beyond Indonesia, reflecting centuries of cultural exchange in Southeast Asia.

Regular ceremonies at Pura Girinatha include Galungan celebrations and Nyepi observances, following the traditional Balinese religious calendar throughout the year.
