Abstract
According to archaeological research, there has long been a strong
cultural relationship between China and Bali. As part of this history, the
Chinese brought their indigenous cultural values with them, particularly their
practice of worshipping ancestors and their syncretic belief in three major
religious doctrines. The Chinese temple is the primary physical manifestation
of this belief and has become identified with their community. The Chinese
community in Bali has also lived side-by-side with Balinese culture and
through a process of adaptation there has emerged a transformation of the
Chinese temple spatial layout in Bali. This paper will identify the influence of
Balinese culture on the layout of Chinese temples in Bali and evaluate this
influence, by analysing the five basic principles in Chinese temple layout, and
how these symbolic meanings have been altered due to being in Bali.
