Kintamani town and the surrounding villages such as Penelokan, and Batur are villages located on the rim of great Batur crater very high from the west and east side. The long ridge is narrow and overlooking the west and east of the area. The west side is low land of central Bali with long distance views and to the east side is the Batur crater with lake and active mount Batur inside. Lake and Mt. Batur is far below the rim where 3 ancient villages are located such as Kedisan, Songan and Trunyan. These 3 villages have been mentioned by a charter issued by Balinese king dated back to 10th century. It is disclosed that since 1000 years ago the area of Kintamani and the surrounding has been crowded with Buddhist monk and people from outside the area to come and settle there. During 13th century it is known that a place just north of Kintamani town named Balingkang related to the latest king of Bali who married Chinese princes. A question weather the palace was located near Kintamani or not is not yet answered by archaeologist, yet the name of Balingkang is not doubt came from Chinese word " Bali - kan " mean king. Ancient heritages in the temple of Balingkang and nearby temple of Panulisan confirm the presence of crowded activities around 13th century in the area. Some stone sculptures are carved with date of carving by local artist named " Empu Bga " and this artist also found to carve a stone carving nearby the city of Gianyar which is separated by a distance of more then 50 kms from Kintamani town. Kintamani beside preserves original and important historical facts of Bali is probably due to it's beautiful panorama that has attracted people from the beginning.
