Goa Gajah

This 11th-century cave is entered through the carved mouth of a demon. A unique ancient site of Bali, Goa Gajah or the Elephant Cave certainly deserves a visit. Carved into the rock-face, the cave possibly dates back to the 11th century. The entrance features the mouth of a mythical creature with many detailed carvings in the surrounding stone. Crouch down and enter the cave to see the shrine and elephant statue inside. The complex also comprises two deep, stone bathing pools, filled with water from spouts held by six female figures.
