Located in a short distance of former princedom Bedulu or Beda-Hulu, this unique ancient and mysterious site is fantastically carved into the rock-face which possibly date around 11th century.

The name was taken from the entrance that features the mouth of a mythical creature which was inspired by the son of Siwa, Ganesha, the elephant God of Hindu. But also inside of the cave itself found many statue of Hindu linggas and Ganesha. To the left of the cave is the house of a 1000 years old statur of Buddist goodness Hariti.

Guarding the cave is the bathing pools with clear water spouts from several life-sized nymphs.
