A temple at Besakih

in #photography • 5 years ago (edited)

One of the multi-tiered temples within the Besakih Temple complex in Bali, Indonesia

Pura Besakih is the largest and holiest Hindu temple in Bali. It sits on the slopes of Mt Agung

One gets to view Mt Agung from between the temples' gates ~ it's an amazing sight!

Here, I caught two angles of this tiered structure

This was in the evening when we got here and the right time as the light is excellent at that hour!
Sitting at 1000m on the side of Mt Agung, the air can be chilly
With the wind blowing mists across the courtyard, and temples... it makes for great shots!

    Ohhh, yes! There are over 20 temples within the complex itself!!
    I hear when Mt Agung erupted in 1963, the lava flow missed the temples and structures by some metres! The Balinese regard this as a miracle...

    Thank you for your support, @bullionstacker!
