Wolfgang's photos with the keyword: Pura Batukaru

The temple's most important shrine is a 7-tiered meru dedicated to Mahadewa, the God of Mount Batukaru. The temple remains an extremely sacred site for Bali's Hindu population. Only a few tourist visiting this holy place which you only arrive in private arrangement.

The temple referred to by locals as Pura Luhur Batukaru, is one of Bali’s key temples, located at the foot of namesake Mount Batukaru. The walled compounds contain several shrines, as well as high 'meru' towers, and 'bale' pavilions with unmistakably ancient Balinese features, such as the dark grass roofs and intricate wall carvings. My photo shows the holy inside yard which can be walked in by praying Hindus only.
