Waters from the temple at the rear of this site feed the pond in the front, which overflows with pretty lotus blossoms. There are carvings that honor Dewi Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of wisdom and the arts, who has clearly given her blessing to Ubud. Regular dance performances are staged here at night. While all can view the pond, only worshippers may enter the temple itself.
