Bali Photo Gallery - City Scenes

Denpasar has been Bali's provincial capital since 1958 although it has been the royal capital since the late 18th century.

Pura Jagatnatha is a Hindu temple that is dedicated to the supreme god.

Next door is the Bali Museum, which opened in 1931 to showcase local works of art. The museum's architecture is also an attraction in itself.

Next door, Puputan Square commemorates the locals' resistance against the Dutch invaders in 1606. The monument shows a Balinese family as heroes, although their weapons were no match to the Dutch's guns.

The Bajra Sandhi Monument sits on a large green space. Climb up for a lovely view and also stop by the various dioramas depicting the island's history.
