Veiled in shadow and ritual power, Pura Dalem Puri Peliatan is one of Ubud’s most ominous sacred spaces, devoted to death, purification and realms beyond human life. A ceremonial heart for royal funerary rites, it is closely tied to Rangda, the Queen of Demons, whose fierce presence confronts dark forces. As a traditional Dalem temple, it functions as a liminal sanctuary where fire guide souls through the underworld.
