Kehen Temple (Pura Kehen)

Kehen Temple, or Pura Kehen, serves as the state temple of the Balinese kingdom of Bangli and is often referred to as a miniature version of Bali’s most significant temple, Pura Besakih. Constructed on an incline, the temple is accessible via a series of stairs, leading visitors to its thatched tiered shrines. Dating back at least to the 13th century, Kehen Temple offers a glimpse into the rich historical and architectural heritage of Bali. Today, visitors can explore the temple’s intricate design and serene surroundings, immersing themselves in the spiritual and cultural essence of the island.
