At Bedugul, the heart of central Bali, the mountains and the lakes are serving the mythical role as a visible link between the Balinese people and the realm of the Gods. The preservation effort around Bali is seen to be the strongest here, so you will only see the best version of tropical highland when you embark on this tour. The subsequent two spots are no less stunning, as you will witness the sunset in all of its glory to the Indian ocean before calling it a day.
1.Ulun Danu Beratan Temple
Built in 1633, Ulun Danu Temple stands majestically at the edge of Lake Beratan. The temple is where the Balinese present their offerings to the Balinese water, lake and river Goddess Danu, due to the importance of the lake as a main source of irrigation in central Bali. As a water temple, Pura Ulun Danu Bratan presents stunning highland and lakeside scenery. Additionally, you may rent an outrigger, paddle or motor boat to roll around the lake.
2.Twin Lake (Tamblingan & Buyan)
