Pura Ulun Danu Batur, Songan
Formerly, before it is in its present location Batur Temple is located on the north eastern slope of Mount Batur – village called Songan since the devastating eruption in 1917 which destroyed everything, including the temple it self. Then initiated by the head of the village along with other prominent figures, they brought the surviving shrines with them and rebuilt Batur Temple to the higher place at Kalanganyar or its present location.
However, Pura Ulun Danu Batur Songan is still considered sacred and holy by the people of Songan and surroundings. Every Purnama Kelima around November takes place temple festival.
