"Built beside a cliff with a cavernous interior, this temple is famed for the colony of bats that roost in its cave, which can be seen flying from many vantage points on the grounds. Local belief holds that a serpent deity, Naga Basuki, resides in the cave and feeds on the bats, and there is a folkloric tale that a subterranean passage links the cave to the major temple some 19 kilometres away." - SilverKris
