Pura Parahyangan Agung Jagatkarta

[2] Pura Jagatkarta is located on the northern slope of Mount Salak, in Ciapus, Tamansari Subdistrict in Bogor Regency.

The temple is built on a sacred location in Mount Salak where it is believed the Sunda Kingdom's Pakuan Pajajaran once stood.

[4] The location of Pura Jagatkarta was also selected based on the legend that the area is the place where Prabu Siliwangi reached moksa with his soldiers.

[5] The access road from the foot of Mount Salak to Pura Jagatkarta has been widened since its construction started in 1995, so vehicles can reach the temple easily.

However, the main temple buildings in the Mandala Utama, such as the Padmasana, Balai Pasamuan Agung, and Paduraksa Gates have been completed.
