Pura Sakenan

Pura Sakenan is an important temple on Serangan Island off the coast of Denpasar, one of the most venerated sanctuaries in southern Bali. Its origins are traditionally linked to a revered Hindu priest who spread religious teachings across the island many centuries ago. Every six months, according to the Balinese calendar, the temple becomes the focus of a major festival that draws throngs of worshippers who cross to the island in colourful processions bearing offerings.
