It is not rare to see that unique candi bentar (a classical Balinese split gateway entrance) on friends’ check-in photos of Bali on social media. The entrance belongs to the Besakih Temple. The photo of a person standing on the passage in the middle of it is just spectacular. No wonder it has become a “site of pilgrimage” of photography for tourists worldwide.

Apart from the USA, Germany and Mexico, Indonesia also uses an eagle as a symbol on its national emblem. The eagle named Garuda on the National emblem of Indonesia is not an ordinary one. It is a mythical eagle and the vahana (vehicle mount) of one of the three principal deities of Hinduism, Vishnu.
