Located at the eastern end of Gajah Mada Street in Denpasar City is the significant landmark, the Catur Muka statue. Positioned at the central four-way intersection known as the catus patha, this monument's inception followed the official endorsement of the Badung Regency's emblem by the Regional House of Representatives and subsequent approval by the Ministry of Home Affairs on July 17, 1971.
The creation of the statue was a collaborative effort involving I Wayan Limbak, a temple priest from Samuan Tiga, who received support from architects I Gusti Aji Madongan, I Gusti Ngurah Cangbe, and I Nyoman Suka.
The statue, a nine-meter-tall edifice carved from granite, features four faces, each embodying a unique quality and representing the deity Brahma. The eastern face, known as Shanghyang Iswara, symbolizes wisdom, while the western face, known as Sanghyang Mahadewa, represents compassion. The northern face, referred to as Sanghyang Wisnu, signifies strength and the purification of the human soul, and the southern face, or Sanghyang Brahma, symbolizes tranquility and peacekeeping.
Additionally, there is a large bell clock from the colonial era displayed to the southeast of the Catur Muka statue. Installed by the Dutch government in 1908, this clock marks Denpasar's evolution and modernization. It stands as a representation of colonial-style time standardization and signifies the city's transformation from a royal to a colonial city.
