Lotus Pond is a unique place with limestone pillars at the sides and the magnificent statue of Garuda in the background.

Lotus Pond originated from lotus. Lotus is the ultimate symbol of beauty, prosperity and fertility. Vishnu also always carries a lotus flower in her hand and almost all the gods of the Hindu god who sits on a lotus or carrying flowers.

Some of the interesting facts is that the lotus plant grows in water, has its roots in illus or mud, and spread flowers in the air above. Thus, the lotus symbolizes human life and also that of the cosmos.
