The famous Kerta Gosa or Royal Court of Justice was built in Klungklung in the 18th century, displays one of Bali’s masterpieces.
The Kerta Gosa Hall of justice is a small pavilion adorned with fantastic ceiling murals. In the 18th century it was Bali’s Highest court of law.
The entire complex is known as Taman Gili , but the name Kerta Gosa is better known. Balinese culture has its own system called adat, meaning traditional law, but for serious offenses Kerta Gosa was the end of the line. Kerta Gosa is located right in the center of Klungkung next to the main roundabout. The gardens of Taman Gili, in which Kerta Gosa sits, were built in 1710.
The most impressive thing is the decorated ceiling containing terrifying artwork depicting good vs. evil.
