Ulun Danu Beratan Lakeside Shrines
Tiered merus rise from small planted platforms at the edge of Lake Beratan.

The story behind the place
Ulun Danu Beratan belongs to Bali’s living Hindu sacred landscape. Its lakeside pair contrasts a tall tiered meru with a smaller three-tier shrine. Their different heights make the forms recognisable, while their lakeside setting connects architecture with the importance of water. The illustration concentrates on their public exterior forms and planted platforms rather than inventing an interior ceremony or treating the temple as an abandoned monument.
