Probably Ulun Danu Bratan Temple looks familiar because actually is listed in our country’s  currency if we notice it. Ulun Danu Bratan Temple is a holiest place for Hindu. According to Babad Mengwi, I Gusti Agung Putu lost a war from I Gusti Ngurah Bayu Tumpeng. I Gusti Agung Putu was not give up, he rosen up until finally he won a fight. After that, I Gusti Agung Putu built  a temple at the end of the Lake Bratan. Babad Mengwi also told that Ulun Danu Bratan was build before 1556 or 1634 Masehi, or one year before Taman Ayu Temple was build which is also another temple was build by I Gusti Agung Putu. Ulun Danu Bratan has succeeded in making  the famous kingdom of Mengwi also his king so I Gusti Agung Putu is known well as “I Gusti Agung Sakti”
