The interior of the church is structured like all Balinese Pura than a little fanciful sculptures that can be seen on the main staircase inside Candi Bentar.

Kebo Iwo served as minister last Balinese king Bedulu, who was a despot by nature and a boar’s head. During the invasion in 1343 AD Majapahit king Bedulu kingdom was defeated Gadjah Mada.
