Bangli Regency is the one and only landlocked regency (kabupaten) of Bali, Indonesia.
Up until 1907, Bangli was one of the nine kingdoms of Bali.[2] The capital has a famous Hindu temple, the Pura Kehen, which dates from the 11th century. Bangli also has one village which surrounds a hill, Demulih.
Pura Dalem Galiran is 1.4 km north-west of Bangli.[3] Pura Dalem Penunggekan, 1.3 km south of the town center,[4] shows on its outside walls sculpted reliefs of sinners in hell.
