My Tanah Lot Tour

Tanah Lot Temple

Spring holy water

As we arrived at 1145 hrs (wrong timing), after about 45 minutes' journey towards north-west from Kuta (where I stayed), the much anticipated not-to-be-missed icon of Bali is located Beraban village in Tabanan regency about 30 km from Denpasar. We fought through the vendors of a marketplace selling the usual souvenirs, arts and handicrafts, paintings etc before getting the spectacular sea view with Tanah Lot , the Temple perched on a rocky islet when the sea water is tide. It is looked to be adrift in on the ocean and owns the magnificent view of sunset in the late afternoon. Tide was low and tourists could walk across to get a closer look at what is going on over below the cliff. What you can experience below the temple is cleansing your body with the holy water. It is prohibited to step on the stairs leading to the shrine. You can also see "holy snakes" the Balinese believe to be "temple guards" where a small donation is appreciated. 

I recommend Tanah Lot as excellent for photography with its breathtaking view of sunset as backdrop. Normally a half day tour including Taman Ayun Temple and Alas Kedaton (Monkey Forest).
