Which temple did we go?

*Tirta Empul Temple
 
 
It is famous for its holy water for purification. There was a religious ceremony going on at the temple the day that we visited because it was the last day of Deepavali celebration which lasted for one month. It had attracted a lot of Hindu Bali people who came for purification at the bath.
 
 
 
 
It is a Balinese Hindu Temple located at Candi Kuning countryside in Bedugul. It was built by the kingdom of Mengwi as the symbol of kingdom superiority in Bali.
 


This was where we had suggested you to have lunch overlooking Lake Beratan instead of the one that we had at Pacung Village. Since we knew the lunch at Pacung was quite disappointing, we hope you have a better one here.
 
 
Taman Ayun literally translates as "beautiful garden'. It is a royal temple of the Mengwi Empire located in Mengwi. We did not spend much time at this temple because it was raining and we had found it less interesting than the other temples that we had visited.













* Tanah Lot Temple

The Tanah Lot temple was built and has been a part of Balinese mythology for centuries. The temple is one of seven sea temples around the Balinese coast.
This place of interest is worth visiting especially for its sunset view. Unfortunately, it was a rainy day so no such luck for us. However, rain or shine, we would still recommand that you should not miss it.
 
 
This cliff-hanging temple at Uluwatu, a number of Bali's very best beaches including Balangan, and the top surfing spots on the island. If you wonder why, then check out the wave...
