It is said, for example, that this temple was first used to venerate a holy priest named professor Kuturan and the next holy priest, named Dang Hyang Niratha. This priest had ended his holy journey in this place that is called moksha, also known as nirvana. This area has several temples associated with the main temple of Uluwatu. There are various activities in regards to religious ceremonies performed in the temple according to the Hindu Balinese calendar.
