Denpasar hotels collection

At the Jagatnatha temple, in the centre of Denpasar, a throne of white coral stands empty at the top of its shrine; it is kept for the supreme god. Further north, the Maospahit temple keeps shrines of red brick thatched with black palm fibre, traced back to the old Javanese kingdom of Majapahit. In Sanur, Le Mayeur painted Ni Pollok, a legong dancer who became his wife. In July, the city's banjar raise janggan kites above Padang Galak, each trailing a long dragon's tail.
