This temple complex is located on the eastern side of the village that translates to ‘Ten Children.’  Surrounded by a lotus filled lagoon the pura, built by King Sri Aji Jayapangus Arkajalancana in the 12th century, is dedicated to the gods Shiva and Hariti with a shrine to the latter carved into the rock face.  Childless couples praying for offspring make the pilgrimage here to ask for blessings from the fertility goddess.
