Lapangan Puputan Margarana

Puputan Park, Lapangan Puputan Renon

This rather grandiose park is home to the huge Bajra Sandhi monument (literally Balinese People's Struggle). The design of the grey stone monument symbolises the date of Indonesian independence, August 17th 1945. There are eight entrances, 17 corners and the height is 45 m. The monument is most significant though for its commemoration of the various puputans (suicidal fight to the death) of the Balinese in the struggle against the Dutch in the early 20th century. At the northern edge of the park you will find the governor's office and other government buildings.
