Pura Dalem Agung Padangtegal is said to be the most frightening temples in Bali. It is the Great Temple of Death, and it is located in the equally well-named Sacred Monkey Forest, in Padangtegal, Ubud, in Central Bali. In keeping with its name, the temple has some frightening carvings such as vampire children with fangs. But apart from that, to the visitor, it is another of the beautifully ornate temples of Bali.
Pura Dalem Agung Padangtegal dates back to the 14th century. It is dedicated to the goddess of death, Durga, who also takes on the form of the witch-monster Rangda, as appearing in the Barong performances.
