Rising from the rugged hills of Bali’s Bukit Peninsula, the magnificent Garuda Wisnu Kencana statue stands watch over the island. The towering statue is Bali’s most iconic landmark and depicts the Hindu God Wisnu, atop his mount, the mythical eagle, Garuda. The Garuda is the national emblem of Indonesia, an enduring symbol of freedom from oppression. Soaring to a height of over 120 meters, this is one of the tallest monumental statues in the world, higher than both the Statue of Liberty and Christ the Redeemer.

You can see the statue from the plane as you come in to land. When completed the statue will dominate the landscape. The completion is still a couple of years off. The limestone quarry is a bit of a maze to walk through and there are a number of statues located around the park. The show in the auditorium runs most of the day and is worth stopping to look at.
