It is best known for its well-preserved traditional culture and village design. While most of its residents have embraced modernity, its individual compounds are well-kept, with manicured gardens lining its single linear stone-paved street that runs through the center of the village to the village temple, and ancient arched entrance gates and walls. that conceal the houses inside. Then, we will proceed to Besakih Temple, known as the “Mother Temple of Besakih.” Facing Mount Agung’s highest peak and located at an altitude of 900 meters, this grand temple complex has been a sacred site since ancient times. The name Besakih is derived from “Basuki,” which means Salvation in classical Sanskrit. According to Samudramanthana mythology, “Besuki” refers to the Dragon-God Naga Besukian, who is believed to inhabit Mount Agung. The first recorded mention of Besakih Temple dates back to 1007 AD, and since the 15th century, it has been regarded as the central temple of Hinduism in Bali.

Within the palace, the Kerta Gosa pavilion initially served as the royal court, and its ceiling is richly painted in traditional Balinese style with Hindu icons.
