A small mound/pyramid consisting of seven terraces, on top small altar in "Hinduistic" style (own interpretation), a straight framed stair case is leading to the structure.
Lays at the bottom of a sloping valley close to a river, currently in the middle of terraced rice paddies. Curiously a small mosque was built behind it and on top of the building a small pagoda has been created which is worshiped by the Muslim community. According to internet research the site is attributed to the "Wali Sangi" the 9 saints who brought Islam to Indonesia.
