Pura Besakih

Affectionately referred to by many as the "Mother Temple of Bali," the Pura Besakih temple complex is Bali's largest and most important temple. Made up of 23 temples on the slopes of Mount Agung, Pura Besakih unfortunately has a negative reputation due to the many locals who harass travellers visiting on their own, telling them that hiring a guide is mandatory (when it is not). But past that, you're left with one of the most beautiful temple complexes in South East Asia and if you're lucky you might just catch one of the many festivals that seem to happen every other day. www.wheremypassportgoes.com www.facebook.com/wheremypassportgoes
Besakih Temple in Bali, Indonesia. This is the most important, the largest and holiest temple of Hindu religion in Bali.
The Mother Temple of Besakih, or Pura Besakih, in the village of Besakih on the slopes of Mount Agung in eastern Bali, Indonesia, is the most important, the largest and holiest temple of Hindu religion in Bali, and one of a series of Balinese temples. Perched nearly 1000 meters up the side of Gunung Agung, it is an extensive complex of 23 separate but related temples with the largest and most important being Pura Penataran Agung. This is built on six levels, terraced up the slope. This entrance is an imposing Candi Bentar (split gateway), and beyond it the even more impressive Kori Agung is the gateway to the second courtyard. Source: Wikipedia #architecture
Pura Besakih (Mother Temple) Bali. Amazing and well worth the bus ride...stops at the rice fields on the way. Shouldn't be missed! #StunningStructures #amustsee!
Besakih is known as the Mother Temple of Bali and is the most important temple of the whole island. It is actually more like a complex of temples in one very large compound and its known and loved for is its dramatic location on the southern slopes of Sacred Mount Agung. It is known as and accepted as Bali’s Mother Temple for more than a thousand years. Besakih was hit a few times by earthquakes (e.g. 1917) and also several volcanic eruptions of Mount Agung took their toll, particularly a major one in 1963. The complex did get damaged here and there but in 1963 the the lava flow did pass sparing the temple from complete destruction. This event is now of course part of the overall legend of Pura Besakih. The people believe that the deities showed their true power but without destroying the holy temple completely. We went here in the early morning to avoid the tourist crowds. #Indonesia #Bali #Besakih #history #Architecture #Culture
