Pura Dalem Sakenan

About

Pura Dalem Sakenan is a pura (Balinese Hindu temple) located at the north-western shore of Serangan, a small island about 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) south of Denpasar, Bali. Pura Dalem Sakenan is dedicated to [rambut sedhana] and is associated with prosperity. Pura Dalem Sakenan is the focus temple of the 210-day Piodalan festival where in the past processions of pilgrims visited the island on foot or by traditional colorful wooden boats called jukung. With the construction of the bridge connecting the Serangan island with Bali as well as the reclamation of the island, the use of colorful jukung for pilgrimage has died out.
