Pura Ulun Danu Bratan is a Hindu (Shaivite) temple on the shores of Lake Bratan, in the mountains near Bedugul, Bali. The article says it was built in 1633 and names no architect or client. It is dedicated to the water goddess Dewi Danu, because the lake is a main source of irrigation for central Bali.
It is an open-air temple within walled compounds on a square layout. Its shrines, called merus, are square, with brick bases and multiple pagoda-style thatched roofs, and the roof count is always odd. The 11-story pelinggih meru is dedicated to Shiva and Parvati. The temple also enshrines a Buddha statue, and a Buddhist stupa stands outside the main complex facing south.
The article says offerings and ceremonies take place here. It spells the lake Bratan in the infobox and Beratan in the text, and gives no access information.
