Carol PostCrossing Journey: Pura Besakih Temple, Bali.

Thursday, November 7, 2024

Pura Besakih Temple, Bali.

Besakih Temple, often referred to as the "Mother Temple of Bali", is the largest and most important Hindu temple complex on the island. Nestled on the southwestern slopes of Mount Agung, Bali's highest volcano, the temple is not only a major religious site but also a cultural icon that draws visitors from around the world.

The temple complex is a sprawling collection of 23 separate but related temples, with Pura Penataran Agung being the most significant among them. Besakih Temple is revered as the holiest of all Balinese temples, serving as a pilgrimage site for the Balinese Hindu community. It stands as a testament to the rich spiritual traditions of Bali, blending majestic architecture with profound religious practices.

Many Thanks to Pak Budi from Denpasar Bali Indonesia.

It’s a great feeling to open my postbox and knowing that postcard is there (instead of bills, statements, invoices, etc…..). Postcard arrived from someone somewhere in this world, at least we have a good reason to visit post office more often than usual, don’t you? :)
