The town itself is dominated by the royal houses spread around its main square. Kehen Temple is the royal ancestral temple of Bangli Kingdom, one of the eight most important royal houses on Bali. Literally meaning the temple of the hearth or the household, this refers to Hyang Api or the God of Fire, symbol of the Hindu god Brahma.

He was so knowledgeable, kind and thoughtful and happy to share all he knew.

We had an amazing day touring Bali’s beautiful temples with Agung. He was not only a skilled driver but also a wonderful guide, sharing rich cultural insights at every stop. Thanks to him, we visited all the temples we hoped for and learned so much along the way. Agung also helped us capture beautiful memories with countless great photos. His kindness, patience, and knowledge truly made our experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!
