Mandala Garuda Wisnu Kencana, or Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK), is a 240 hectares private cultural park on the
Bukit Peninsula at the southern end of the island of Bali in Indonesia,
15 minutes from Ngurah Rai International Airport. Bukit is a limestone
plateau with Uluwatu to the
west and Nusa Dua to the east.
It is devoted to the Hindu god Vishnu, and his mount, Garuda, the mythical bird who is his companion.
Project progress:
Currently, the statue of Vishnu is 23 metres (75.5 ft) high, although the original plan was for a 146-metre (479 ft) gold-plated Vishnu riding Garuda on top of an 11-storey entertainment complex. Garuda wing span will be 64 metres (210.0 ft) across.[1] When it's completed, it will be the largest statue in the world.
