Xandra Dekker's video: Goa Gajah or Elephant Cave is near Ubud Bali Indonesia is on the UNESCO list

@Goa Gajah or Elephant Cave is near Ubud, Bali, Indonesia is on the UNESCO list
Goa Gajah, also called , located east of Peliatan near Ubud in the middle of Bali. Goa Gajah dates from the 11th century and was discovered in 1922. The entrance to the cave is a kind of monstrous creature with mouth wide open. The cave has a 13 meter long corridor leads to a T-junction. At the end of the left corridor is a statue (1 m high) with four arms of Ganesha (the Hindu god with the elephant). In the other hallway are three linga that represent the manifestations of Shiva. Just before the entrance is a statue of the Buddhist goddess Hariti. Opposite the cave is a fountain with six images of women. This was only uncovered in 1954 by the archaeologist JC Warrior. Along the cave is the river Petanu. Striking is the mix of Hindu and Buddhist elements. Around the year one thousand cave must have been used by Hindus; probably before by Buddhists.
