Pura Belanjong

The Pura Belanjong in Bali is one of the most significant archaeological remains in the island. The edifice of Pura Belanjong in Bali in Indonesia was built by Warmadewa Dynasty's Buddhist King Sri Kesari Varma in 914 A.D. King Sri Kesari Varma had also founded the Besakih sanctuary on the Gunung Agung slopes. This thick stone column that depicts inscriptions in both Old Balinese and Nagari script from Sanskrit was erected as a symbol of the king's inauguration as the first king of the island.
The inscriptions on the stone columns of the Pura Belanjong in Bali offers a reference to the military expedition that was set against the eastern Indonesia. The stone column known as prasasti is the isle's oldest artifact that was discovered quite late in the year 1932. The pillar that stands tall behind Bali's Pura Belanjong is a smooth volcanic stone that is cylindrical is shape and features a crown of a carved lotus cushion.
