Temples of Bali

Most of Indonesia was Hindu at one stage. But then Islam spread through the archipelago and Bali was the only place to resist it. So it has a unique Hindu culture which the Balinese take very seriously.
Every household has a shrine, every village has a temple and special places have very sacred temples.
Taman Ayun Temple was built to worship the ancestral spirits of the kings of Mengwi. There are 9 pagodas surrounded by a moat represent the 9 major temples of Bali in the middle of a sea of ​​milk.
