Pura Tambang Badung stands as a surviving fragment of the old Badung royal world, in the middle of a bustling modern city. Built over 360 years ago during the rise of the Pemecutan court, it functions as both a sacred site and a centre of royal authority. Lions hold the perimeter in silent control, while Majapahit Empire brick architecture and armed guardian figures reflect a legacy of military force, now preserved as ritual symbolism.

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.
