In November 2023, the upscale restaurant brand Wanwea·Yuan under the Da Ya Li Restaurant Group quietly launched.

SAKA MUSEUM
The SAKA Museum is one dedicated to Balinese Hinduist culture and traditional crafts in the Ayana Estate in Jimbaran, Bali. The entire interior seeks inspiration from local natural and cultural heritage in order to represent the powerful connection between culture and nature in Balinese Hinduism.

Different Balinese Hinduist motifs were also reflected in the architectural language through a contemporary lens while maintaining the essence of the traditional form.
