One of the interesting things about Bali, is the different shapes and forms of temples.
Sea-temples, for example, are totally differently shaped then inland temples.
The picture here is of a sea-temple.
Do you notice the parts sticking out? It's like an antenna, telling the sea spirits: "hey, watch out, there are people living here on the land. Don't come too close".
It works for Bali.
And I must say, the priests are building quite some new sea-temples recently. Let's hope and pray that they can keep the balance of the powers of nature. Bali is a small island, and the powers of the ocean are overwhelming.
