Pura Jagatnatha, Denpasar

Pura Jagatnatha is a Balinese temple in Denpasar, Bali. It was built in 1970 for the worship of Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa, the supreme god of the Balinese Hindu pantheon (an avatar to the Hindu god Vishnu). The name of the temple means "Temple of the Lord of the Universe". The temple has a very tall padmasana, the seven-tier "lotus throne" of limestone on which the god is seated.

Pura Jagatnatha is located next to the Bali Museum, and across from Taman Puputan. It gets crowded with devotees on days of full moon and new moon, as well as on Kajeng Kliwon, a feast day that occurs every 15 days on the Balinese calendar.
