Pura Ulun Danu Batur, Hindu temple in Kintamani, Indonesia.

Pura Ulun Danu Batur is a Hindu Balinese temple complex of nine separate temples holding 285 shrines and pavilions, set on the outer rim of Lake Batur's caldera in Batur village, Kintamani. Its principal temple, Pura Penataran Agung Batur, has five courtyards; in the innermost stands an eleven-tiered meru, flanked by three nine-tiered merus for Mount Batur, Mount Abang and Ida Batara Dalem Waturenggong.

The original temple dates from the 17th century and was relocated to its present location in 1926 following an eruption of Mount Batur. A sacred eleven-tiered shrine was the sole temple to survive the catastrophe and was later reconstructed.

The site honors the goddess Dewi Danu through rituals tied to water and farming cycles that shape local life. Visitors observe how the sacred spaces connect deeply to Balinese daily practices, with offerings and prayers showing the ongoing respect for the forces that sustain the land.

The temple stands in Batur village on the outer rim of Lake Batur's caldera, reached by road from Ubud through Kintamani. The compound is entered through the outer sanctum (jaba pisan) before the middle and inner courtyards, so allow time to walk the nine temples. A sarong and sash are required.

The 11-tiered meru in the inner courtyard survived the 1926 eruption that buried the rest of the compound, and it was carried to the new site together with the temple's gamelan and the guardian figure Bhatara Gede. The orchestra was kept in a bale at a temple in Desa Bayung until the rebuilding was finished.
