Temples

The first temple we visited with our guide required that we wear ceremonial sarongs to enter.


The temple was built in 944 and is still in use today. The temple consists of several structures and gardens.





There were gargoyles and statues all over the place.






This is Spanish painter Antonio Blanco's home. He went to Bali and married a Balinese dancer. His home now serves as a gallery for his art work. His widow and son still live on the premises. But it ought to be temple.



What home keeps a pagoda?


This garden leads to the Temple On The Water.


At the water's edge, there are many gardens, restaurants, and shops.



Across the water sits this little island where a man was fishing.


And there are the two small temples on the water.


While we were there, the fog rolled in.



An artist doing my portrait by the temple. He asked me to take my hair down for the sitting. "Hair up, look pregnant," he said. But I think it was his polite way of say, "look fatter."
