When I come to Bali I wonderful with Balinese culture, I was see a beautiful gate with unique architectures in every temples in Bali, I was asked our tour guide about that. Made astawa as my tour guide was said that's building namely Candi Bentar.
Candi Bertar (split Gate) is arch shape building term for two similar buildings and unvarying but a mirror symmetry that restricts the left and right of the entrance. the temple has not roof liaison briefly at the top' so that the two sides apart perfectly, and only connected the bottom by the stairs.
The Building is commonly called " Split Gate" because of its shape as if the temple resembles a perfectly halved. This type of gate building especially prevalent in Java, Bali, an Lombok island. Building like this alleged split gate fist appeared in the Majapahit era.
At the temple or Puri"palace" Bali layout zone rules, either Candi Benter or Koro Agung is an integral architectural design. Candi Bentar gateway to the outer environment that limit out side the temple are with Nista Mandala "jaba Pisan" outer zone of the temple complex, while the Kori Agung used as the gate in the environment in the temple and is used to limit madya mandala zone (jaba tengah) eith the utama mandala (jeroan) as an holiest area of Bali's temple. It can be concluded that both the temple as well as a place to live,Candi Bentar used for outer environment, while Kori Agung for the environment in the temple.
