JAKARTA - Pura Agung Surya Buana, located in the city of Jayapura, is the location for the 'official' post for the Balinese contingent that competes in the XX Papua PON event.
In addition to being a place of stopover for athletes from the Island of the Gods, Pura Agung Suryabuana can also be a place of worship for athletes who are Hindus.
"The official post for the Bali contingent is indeed placed here, apart from being a stopover, it can also be a place of worship for Hindu athletes," said the head of the official PON XX Papua committee for the Bali contingent to Antara, Saturday.
The command post was prepared to meet the needs of athletes and teams from the Bali contingent involved in the XX Papua PON.
As of last Friday, there are two athletes from boxing and badminton who are planned to stay temporarily at the official post until they get the right lodging.
The Chairperson of the Parisada Hindu Dharma Indonesia (PHDI) Papua Province I Komang Alit Wardhana also warmly welcomed the entire contingent from Bali.
“We Hindus in the city of Jayapura warmly receive our brothers from Bali, so that what is in Pura Agung Surya Buana belongs to us together. Likewise for the contingents in the Mimika, Merauke, and Jayapura Regency clusters. Hopefully PON X Papua can run safely, orderly and smoothly," said I Komang Alit Wardhana.
Pura Agung Surya Buana is located on Jalan Raya Abe Pura, also known as Pura Padma Buana Nusantara.
This means that this temple is a place of worship which is the easternmost of all temples in Indonesia.
In addition to maintaining the location of worship, it still has a Balinese atmosphere and is also equipped with a touch of Papuan local wisdom in the carvings of the building.
Surya Buana Temple has another advantage, namely the beautiful natural scenery between the mountains and the sea.
When visiting Surya Buana Temple, you can witness the beauty of the Red Bridge Youtefa Bay and the beautiful ocean.
