Pura Agung Besakih
THE TAKE
The mother temple of Bali, a complex of more than twenty temples climbing the slope of Mount Agung, with records going back to the eleventh century and lava from the nineteen sixty three eruption that stopped short of the walls.
WHY IT’S WORTH IT
1More than twenty temples in one complex, all of them still in use.
2The nineteen sixty three lava flow stopped at the edge, which is why Balinese call it protected.
3Set high on Mount Agung, so the view is the argument as much as the architecture.
