Located in Batur Village, Kintamani, this enormous complex of nine temples lies about 65 kilometers from Denpasar. The principle temple, Pura Penataran Agung Batur, houses five multi-tiered shrines dedicated to deities and saints. Each pura serves a specific purpose, spiritual (in honor of the gods) or worldly (agriculture, craftwork, hot springs and the like). People, especially farmers come from all over Bali to worship Vishnu because of the temple’s strong connection with irrigation and proximity to Lake Batur. Each year, a grand temple festival takes place here during the 10th Balinese month.
