Mount Batur (Kintamani’s Village)
Spectacular and fascinating.
Mont Batur, proudly standing 1717 metres above sea level, is still an active volcano, which last eruption occurred back in 2000. It is bordered by an impressive caldera inside which new craters were formed and where a huge lake spreads over a distance of several kilometres.
From Kintamani’s village, located just off the caldera, you will benefit from a stunning panorama overlooking this magnificent site.
Recommended visit duration: 15 to 60 minutes.
Penglipuran Village
Faithful to ancestral traditions
Penglipuran inhabitants decided to preserve their traditional way of life by forbidding several modern nuisances. In that aim, they established a certain number of rules such as prohibition of motorised vehicles, preservation of the traditional wooden houses and waste control for instance.
You will have the opportunity to thoroughly observe the organization of this admirably preserved village, while helping the inhabitants to pursue their efforts with your participation to the fixed entry contribution.
The place remains very little touristic, unlike Tenganan (east from Bali), which became too commercial due to rather insisting local handcraft sellers.
Recommended visit duration: 45 to 60 minutes.
Kehen
The Besakih you are dreaming of.
Dedicated to Shiva, Kehen is one of Bali’s most remarkable Hindu temples with Besakih; both sharing some similarities. But unlike the latter, Kehen temple offers optimal visit conditions as it remains reserved to initiated persons and the solicitations are discrete.
The temple being built in terraces on a hillside, you will access it via a monumental stairway ornamented with impressive volcanic rock sculptures. In complete tranquillity, you will admire there a sanctuary with 11 roofs (“meru”), a hundred very elegant statues and a gigantic banian (a kind of ficus), which you will appreciate for its pleasant shade.
Recommended visit duration: 45 minutes.
