The paradise island of Bali is located in Indonesia.

Located in the northeast of the island is Klungkung, former capital of the dynasty of the same name and also the former seat of Dewa Agung, the highest ranking of the Balinese rajas.

On the slopes of the Gunung Agung Volcano is Bali's largest religious sanctuary, the country’s first state temple of Pura Besakih. On special occasions thousands of Balinese hindus visit this, the Mother Of All Temples, where authentic religious dance performances entertain the faithful.

The shrines of Pura Ulun Danu Batur are dedicated to various deities and are guarded by fancifully decorated stone figures. Ornate gates and various steps lead to a second courtyard that is surrounded by several shrines.

A little remote and surrounded by a mountain forest, from a clearing appears one of Bali‘s holiest temples, Pura Luhur Batukau. Here Mahadewa, deity of the Batukaru Volcano, is worshipped, and for whom there is a shrine in each of West Bali’s temples.

May the gods be benevolent and preserve Bali, a splendid paradise on Earth!
