Pura Gede Perancak
Hindu sea temple in Bali, Indonesia
Pura Gede Perancak is a prominent Hindu sea temple in Perancak, Bali, Indonesia. This temple commemorates the site of Dang Hyang Nirartha's arrival in Bali in 1546.[1]
Buffalo races (makepung lampit) are organized in Perancak each 28 of the month between July and November, gathering some 250 participants (pepadu) each year.[2]
Etymology
The name 'Perancak' comes from ancak, meaning "broken", "destroyed"; an allusion to the legend whereby I Gusti Ngurah challenged Nirartha and the latter causing a stone to split.[3]
