Jawi Temple
(original name: Jajawa) is a temple built around the 13th century and is a historic relic of Hindu-Buddhist Kingdom Singhasari located at the foot of Mount Welirang, precisely in the Village Temple Wates, Prigen District, Pasuruan, East Java, Indonesia , about 31 kilometers from the city of Pasuruan. This temple is located midway between Pandaan sub-district Prigen and Pringebukan. Jawi temple is widely thought of as a place of worship or a place of Buddhist worship, but is actually a place of sabharmaan or storage of ash from the last king of Singhasari, Kertanegara. Some of the ash is also stored on Singhasari Temple. Both of these temples have something to do with Candi Jago which is a place of King Kertanegara worship.
