Pura Agung Jagatnatha Padmasana

The Pura Agung Jagatnatha Padmasana towered with its magah, Tintya, the symbol of Hyang Tunggal – the Supreme God made of gold, could be seen clearly from the Puputan Badung field. But in 1981, the sacred object was robbed by thieves. That is the sad history of Jagatnatha Temple which stands on JL Mayor Wisnu, east of Puputan Badung Square, north of the Bali Museum, opposite Kodam IX/Udayana Headquarters in downtown Denpasar. Because it is located in the heart of the city, it is not difficult to reach the temple. The temple is a place of worship for God in his manifestation as Hyang Jagat Natha – the Lord of the Universe. The word “natha” in Sanskrit not only means “king”, but also “help” or “protection”.
