White is White Contest Challenge: Gate to Taman Sari

The gate to the Taman Sari water castle (royal baths) which lies within the royal palace complex of Kraton in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, looks like an exquisite piece of confection!
Although a little faded when I visited, this gate was still a vision of blinding brilliance especially in the bright sunshine.
Its sheer size and intricate carvings make this 18th century structure an outstanding piece of architecture!
