Indonesia - Temples

We Need a Recount
Bali is known as the land of a thousand temples but I don't think they've counted recently.  There were dozens in the small village of Ubud alone.  Everywhere you looked there were narrow doors leading to vast courtyards of intricate stone sculptures.


Surrounded by hungry jungle and high humidity, it's a wonder they don't get swallowed up.  The upkeep must be tremendous.

 It's like walking around an outdoor museum, the combination of natural beauty and art is powerful.
