    A worship complex of all religion in Indonesia. You can pray at a place according to your religion. This complex is huge with more huge parking. Many jumah prayers on Friday noon. Avoid the time if you want less people. This place is also nice for pictures. We love it

    This is a great area, where 5 praying places for Moslem, Catholic, Budhism, Christian, and Hindu are side by side... Showing the unity in diversity... The place give a strong message that Indonesia has many religion, ethnics, and dialects, but everyone can live side by side in peace and harmony

    Puja Mandala serves as a perfect example of how 5 of Indonesia’s major religions can live harmoniously side-by-side, despite their differences in beliefs and ways of worshipping. In a single compound, this unique Nusa Dua landmark has a Hindu temple, a grand mosque, a Buddhist temple and both Catholic and Protestant churches. The 2-hectare Puja Mandala religious complex has a spacious parking lot in front, shared by pilgrims and visitors to all the sites. From the left, first in view is the grand mosque – Masjid Agung Ibnu Batutah – with its bright green tiled prism-shaped roof. Multiple flights of stairs lead up to its prayer rooms, with ornate grey ceramic laden walls and mihrab. Among the mosque’s antique treasures is an old prayer drum and a handwritten Qur’an.

From the left, first in view is the grand mosque – Masjid Agung Ibnu Batutah – with its bright green tiled prism-shaped roof. Multiple flights of stairs lead up to its prayer rooms, with ornate grey ceramic laden walls and mihrab. Among the mosque’s antique treasures is an old prayer drum and a handwritten Qur’an. Right next to the mosque is the Catholic Maria Bunda Segala Bangsa church, with sets of crosses and angelic statues atop its roofs and Balinese style ‘kul-kul’ bell tower. To its right is the Buddhist temple, Vihara Buddha Guna, which also serves as the central spot among the row of 5 places of worships within the complex. This temple is impressively ornate, with large white elephant statues in white and gold at its foyer, bodhisattvas guarding its main doors, striking golden wall motifs and a giant dome rooftop on its main building. To the right of the Buddhist Temple is the Protestant GKPB Jemaat Bukit Doa church which, like its Catholic counterpart, also features a tall bell tower in Balinese architectural style. The church offers an international service, featuring congregations held in English and Bahasa. Finally, at the far right of the Puja Mandala complex is the Pura Jagatnatha temple, built with the same majesty as any Balinese Hindu temple on the island, featuring dragon staircases and ornately sculpted gates, walls and shrines. The Puja Mandala complex was inaugurated in 1997 by the then Minister of Religion, with funds from the state-owned Bali Tourism Development Corporation (BTDC). The complex is open for visitors, but access into each place of worship depends on each of their particular scheduled events, ceremonies, prayer and congregation times.

    This is a place where religions co-exist, you have a mosque, Buddhist temple, Catholic Church all on one site, and you can visit each of them and pray or just explore. At the temple, women need to be covered up so wear a long dress. I was given a wrap as a had on a summer dress that was above my knees.

    Indonesia Diversity and “muhibah”. Something that was missing in peninsular Malaysia since the 90s. Hopefully now with new Pakatan govt, things will change for the better...back to Tunku Abdul Rahman’s original vision for Malaysia.

    Make sure you wear proper dress to go to the Mosque and the Temple.

    A great testament to Pancasila ; however, only the protestant church will let in women who are less "modestly" dressed (mosque will offer covering clothes, to their credit) and the Buddhist temple simply refuses entry to visitors, no questions asked (what the heck, Balinese Buddhists?)

    I went here with my family. My grandma loves to see the birds in the church. We took photos, pray, and enjoy the vibes
