Taman Ayun Temple is the Pura Keluarga for Mengwi Kingdom. Initially, the temple was founded because the pretend that is in jama it is too far distance to reach by Mengwi people.

According to legend, this temple was built by a wandering brahmin from Java, namely Danghyang Nirartha who succeeded in strengthening the belief of the Balinese population on Hindu teachings and building Sad Kahyangan in the 16th century. At that time, the ruler of Tanah Lot named Bendesa Beraben felt jealous of him because his followers began to go to follow Danghyang Nirartha.
Bendesa Beraben then ordered Danghyang Nirartha to leave Tanah Lot. Danghyang Nirartha agreed, but before he with his power moved the Stone Slag to the center of the beach (not to the sea) and built the temple there. He also changed his shawl into a snake guardian of the temple. This snake is still there today and scientifically this snake including sea snake species that have the characteristics of flat-tailed like fish, black color yellow and has toxic 3 times stronger than cobra. Finally it was mentioned that Bendesa Beraben became a follower of Danghyang Nirartha.
The uniqueness of Tanah Lot is related to the myth of the local people about the sacred serpent in Tanah Lot Temple, the sacred serpent Tanah Lot is believed to be the guardian and savior of Tanah Lot Temple from the nasty attacks that disturb the holiness of the temple. The type of snake is from the Latin named Bungarus candidus, sea snakes are very poisonous and dangerous, the body has a black and white circular.
This holy serpent will attack anyone who wants to do evil and want to destroy the existence and sanctity of Pura Tanah Lot, but even so the holy serpent will remain silent and calm in the cave located at the corner of the rock near the temple Tanah Lot, even visitors Can touch and stroke this serpent without worrying about the counterattack of this snake and of course we will be accompanied by someone who understands the character of this sacred snake.
