Geger temple has been very long established but not much historical references or manuscript. There are sources that mention about the Temple Geger, Manuscript of Rasmi Sancaya which related to the Dang Hyang Nirartha journey (holy hermit from East Java) in Bali Island. Pura Geger is also linked to the Gunung Tedung Temple (or Gunung Payung Temple). This temple is located 5 kilometers to the south, about 15 minutes and close to Pandawa Beach.
Another manuscript is Babad Dalem Pemutih (Petak Jingga) associated with the Gelgel Kingdom in Klungkung Regency and the rebellion of Ki Maruti. The rebellion can be defeated and displaced up stranded in Karang Enjung, later known as Pura Geger.
