Great historical landmark from Majapahit ancient kingdom. It was a very important heritage and was the mark of the famous ancient Majapahit gate, as mentioned too in the old manuscript Nagarakretagama.
This place now though situated near by an important access to the national street, but still has its great ambience and quite atmosphere. Perfect place for finding a peacefull moment. Very recommended.

According to the archaeologist the gate of Wringin Lawang is a gateway of Majapahit Kingdom, but are not the main gate because the main gate drivable by carriage and until now, the main gate of the Majapahit Kingdom itself can not be determined with certainty. Wringin Lawang Temple is derived from the word " Wringin " it's mean banyan, because near the temple there is a banyan tree, and the word " Lawang " it's mean gate or door. This temple area for many years has been a public funeral by the people around this place. But, now has restored, the banyan tree is cut down and the graves moved. The temple was split in two exactly the same shape are built by using materials of red brick. According to some article the temple was restored in the 1990 by using bricks and coupled with the lightning rod. Wringin Lawang gate is believed to be one of the entrance to the complex of Majapahit Palace. The gate is commonly called " Candi Bentar " ( the temple is torn in two ). However, it is not a temple but the gate which is similar right to the temple, but as if split into equal parts, from top to bottom the same shape and the top is not closed. The architectural style of this kind might appear in the Majapahit era and can currently be found in Balinese architecture.
