Temple entrance

Kori Agung - Temple Gate
Every major temple is divided into courtyards seperated by Kori Agung, which are elaborately carved gates with shrines on each side such as the one above. The grand style of this gate comes from the former Mengwi Kingdom which once stretched from Lake Bratan to as far south as Denpasar.

The drum tower is a four poster pavilion with one or more wooden slit drums in it used to summon the villagers for an assembly or other reason. The rhythm of the drum beat varies according to the reason for the summons.
