Pura Beji Sangsit is a unique 15th century temple on Bali’s northern volcanic coast, shaped during the decline of the Majapahit Empire in Java, when waves of priests, nobles and artisans moved across the island to reshape its cultural landscape. Built from pale volcanic stone that has darkened over centuries of weather, ritual and upheaval, the temple is defined by traditional carvings with unusual European figures within its mythological reliefs.
