Message from Zaya Mardika

Goa Gajah, also known as the Elephant Cave, is a historical sanctuary located in Bali near Ubud, Indonesia. Built in the 9th century, this unique site features a mix of Hindu and Buddhist imagery, including lingam and yoni symbols and a statue of Ganesha. The cave, with its menacing carved faces, is believed to ward off evil spirits. Visitors can explore the small temple interior and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere, making it a must-visit spot for those seeking a blend of history and spirituality in Bali.
