Bali Stone
Carving
Stone Carving were mainly used to decorate temples and palaces. There is little
difference between the iconography decorating temples and that of private buildings.
Gateways represent the dividing line between the inner and outer worlds and
as such are the recipients of some of the most fantastic carvings.
Bali's modern-day
centre of stone carving is the village of Batubulan, situated halfway between
the town of Denpasar and Ubud.
