Kongco Dwipayana


Hello guys! finally I can write again after a long long time. I was really busy to teach because of the exam. So, today I will tell you about a temple, a Buddhism temple which is called Kongco Dwipayana. This temple is very beautiful. I really love this temple. I always visit this temple after I finish pray in Tanah Kilap Temple. That's because this temple is located beside Tanah Kilap Temple, one of Hindu Temple in Denpasar. I think I already told you before that Hindu and Buddha in Bali Have a really strong bond and live in harmony.

Kongco Dwipayana was built in Ching Dynasty. This temple is located in Simpang Siur Bypass st, South Denpasar. This temple is different like other temples that I've ever visited before. In other Buddism temples that I've visited before in Bali, I only see some Buddha statue but in this temple, I saw a lot of Gods, Goddesses and Buddha statues. I took some pictures of them. These pictures was taken when the day of the seven Goddesses's birthday ceremony. I was lucky thought, because I got a chance to watch a lion dance live. Here some of the pictures.
