Singaraja, Bali Province, Lesser Sunda Islands, Indonesia
🇮🇩 Singaraja is a port town in northern Bali, Indonesia, which serves as the seat of Buleleng Regency. The name is Indonesian for "Lion King" (from Tamil singam and raja). It is just east of Lovina, and is also the centre of Buleleng District, which covers an area of 46.94 km² and is the second largest on the island.
Singaraja was the Dutch colonial capital for Bali and the Lesser Sunda Islands from 1849 until 1960, an administrative centre and the port of arrival for most visitors until the development of the Bukit Peninsula area in the south. Singaraja was also an administrative centre for the Japanese during their World War II occupation.
Gedong Kirtya, just south of the town centre, is the only library of lontar manuscripts (ancient and sacred texts on leaves of the rontal palm) in the world - apart from the Pustaka Lontar Museum in Penaban, north of Amlapura.
