About Pura Luhur Batukaru

Pura Luhur Batukaru is a Hindu temple in Tabanan, Bali, Indonesia.

Originally built during the 11th century, Pura Luhur Batukaru was dedicated to the ancestors of the rajas of Tabanan. It was destroyed in 1604, but rebuilt in 1959. The temple's most important shrine is a 7-tiered meru dedicated to Mahadewa, the God of Mount Batukaru.
