SATRIA GATOTKACA ART WORK

A beautiful piece of high-qualified art near the Ngurah Rai Airport of Bali. It is GATOTKACA, a tragic hero figure, half Rakshasa (human-eating monster giant) and one character from the epic Hindu Mahabharata. He sacrifices himself as a victim of the evil, dark Karna and his energy-devouring weapon, the Konta. Karna actually wanted to use this to kill the charismatic and best Pandawa warrior Arjuna. It is believed to lend spiritual protection and safety for all incoming and outgoing, flights.

    Great Artwork
    The first statue that you will see when you land in Bali. Amazing, so big, and really colourful in night. What a wonderful piece of art that is. That is a must stop place to take some photographs.

    Very impressive
    This impressive statue became a landmark for us during our travels around the island and is wonderful. You may think you are lost and not sure which way you should go but then you see this and it definitely is a reference point. Size wise, it is huge, and it would be really interesting to know the full history behind it. Also, it is a pity you just go whistling past in a car rather than having time to explore it but it certainly is impressive.
