Tirta means blessed water, gangga derives from Ganges in India. The water coming from the natural springs of Tirtagangga has always been regarded as holy and it is used for religious ceremonies in the temples in the area until today.

The first thing you see when entering the garden is the elegant eleven-tiered Nawa Sanga fountain which rises in the middle of the complex with on the right the Mahabharata pond and on the left the South pond with the long Demon Island in the middle.
A large footpath runs in the middle of the garden. In the pond on the right side there are 20 sculptures of Mahabharata figures arising from the water. A pathway between the statues allows visitors to walk on the water, crossing pond and observing the Pandawa and Kurawa figures.
The fountain tower in the middle of the garden is surrounded by eight sculptures delineating the eight cardinal directions.


At the end of the middle footpath there are two sculptures of Barong and Rangda representing the eternal battle among the good and evil.
The long Demon island in the middle of the south pond is connected to the garden by two beautiful stone bridges.
