Petirtaan Belahan, better known as Candi Belahan, is a historic bath from the 11th century, during the period of the Airlangga kingdom. Petirtaan Belahan is located on the east side of Mount Penanggungan, precisely in the hamlet of Belahan Jowo, Wonosunyo, Gempol District. The bath is in the form of a rectangular pond that gets a supply of water from a small river. The rear west wall spreads the mountain slope with the form of niches that previously contained the embodiment of Airlangga's deity as Vishnu. With a length of 6.14 m and a width of 6.14 m
According to history, besides being the place for Prabu Airlangga's hermitage, this petirtaan is also functioned as a bathing for Prabu Airlangga's concubines. Therefore, as a form of dedication, 2 Empress Prabu Airlangga's statues were built, namely Dewi Laksmi and Dewi Sri. In the two statues, the flow of water flows from the shape of the bust of the statue, and therefore this petirtaan is sometimes referred to as the Source of the Drop (Tits: Payudara, Java)
In 991 AD, the King of Bali, Udayana made a temple to the west of Mount Pananggungan, Pasuruan, East Java. The name of the temple is Petirtaan Jolotundo, built to commemorate the birthday of his son, Airlangga. In 1009 AD, the adult Airlangga built a temple adjacent to the Jolotundo Petirtaan. Locals call it Candi Belahan, or Sumber Tetek Temple. Both statues symbolize fertility. That said, this pool is a bathing place for Prabu Airlangga's wives and concubines.
The nipple part of Dewi Laksmi's statue was repaired, because initially the water that came out just fell on her feet. It is feared that this could damage the statue's foot, so the temple administrator took the initiative to install a pipe in the chest so that the water immediately slid into the pond.

Candi Pawon

candi pawon

The name of Pawon Temple can not be known for certain its origin. J.G. epigraphy expert de Casparis interprets that Pawon is derived from the Java language awu which means 'ash', gets the prefix of the pa- and the suffix -an which denotes a place. In everyday Java the word pawon means 'kitchen', but de Casparis defines it as a 'furnace' or a place of ash. Locals also mention the Pawon Temple under the name Bajranalan. This word may be derived from the Sanskrit word vajra = meaning 'lightning' and anala which means 'fire'. Pawon Temple was restored in 1903.
