Sakenan Temple or colloquially known as ‘Pura Sakenan,’ is an important temple in the southern region of Bali, located on the north-western shore of Serangan. The temple was built in the 10th Century by high priest Mpu Kuturan, who arrived in Bali in 1001 AD before the fall of the Majapahit Kingdom. The high priest was on a mission to change the socio-religious aspects of the Balinese communities. Though little things about the temple have changed over the years, the entire event still holds a very important part of the Balinese culture. The temple comprises two significant areas, the largest area having undergone renovation except for its antique walls around the temple grounds, and a smaller part that retains its olden features. The temple was previously built from limestone and corals sourced from coastal reefs of the surrounding areas. This sublime Hindu temple is a prominent religious site for the locals of Bali.
