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.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
