Taman Sari building contains four cultural elements namely; Hinduism, Buddhism, Chinese, Islam. These four cultures are manifested in the form of buildings in Taman Sari. At present Taman Sari has changed its function to become a tourist attraction visited by many tourists, both local and foreign visitors who travel to Taman Sari.
