It was built in the 11^th century by renowned sage Mpu Kuturan. Long after the building of the temple, Dang Hyang Nirartha came to Bali and was amazed by the temple. He then expanded the temple by creating Padmasana in that temple and meditated there on a stone until he vanished which is called ‘Moksa’ in Hindus belief. The Moksa that he reached at that time was a Parama Moksa which is vanishing without leaving any parts of body in the world. The name of this temple was given from the stone where he was sitting on and vanished (‘Ulu’ means top, and ‘watu’ means stones). It is such a very nice story and the temple has become very famous up to now.
