Pura Penataran Agung, the most important temple in the Pura Basakih temple complex, is built on six levels, terraced up the slope, with the entrance approached from below, up a flight of steps. This entrance is an imposing candi bentar (split gateway), and beyond it, the even more impressive kori agung is the gateway to the second courtyard.
You will find that it's most enjoyable during one of the frequent festivals, when hundreds or even thousands of gorgeously dressed devotees turn up with beautifully arranged offerings. Note that tourists are not allowed inside this temple.
