Ulun Danu Beratan Temple and UNESCO Rice Terrace Tour is a day tour package with a combination of cultural tours and visiting the natural beauty of Bali. This Full-Day tour invites you to visit historical temples in Bali with stunning natural scenery.

The first stop is a waterfall hidden in a lush tropical forest, creating a calm and peaceful atmosphere, away from the crowds. The green surroundings calm the mind, and the sound of the waterfall is the perfect music for relaxation.

The next destination is a temple with high historical value and a vital function for Balinese Hindus. This temple is located in the very popular Bedugul tourist area in Bali, with its several lakes. The temple in question is Pura Ulun Danu Beratan which is located on the banks of Beratan lake. At high tide, Ulun Danu Beratan temple seems to float in the middle of the lake, adding to the exotic scenery.

The next stop is a village close to Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, Jatiluwih. Jatiluwih village is a rice field area that is the rice granary for the island of Bali. As far as the eye can see, there will be a stretch of terraced rice fields. Because of the beauty of the rice fields and nature in this village, many tourists visit this place. In 2012, Jatiluwih was recognised by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage because of the Subak system. Subak is a traditional rice field irrigation system that applies in all regions in Bali.

Finally, visit Tanah Lot Temple. This temple is very unique, because it is located on a piece of coral in the middle of the sea. If the tide is high, visitors cannot reach the temple area. Tanah Lot Temple is one of the best spots to see the sunset. So the best time to visit here is in the afternoon before sunset.

Leke-Leke Waterfall

Leke Leke Waterfall is a natural tourist destination located in Tabanan, Bali. The waterfall is hidden in a lush tropical forest, creating a calm and peaceful atmosphere away from the crowds. To reach the waterfall, visitors must pass through a beautiful trail with green scenery and a small bamboo bridge that crosses the river.

Leke Leke Waterfall is of medium height with a stream of water that falls from a narrow cliff between moss-covered rock walls. The water is clear and fresh, flowing into a natural pool below where visitors often swim or splash around. The beauty and serenity of this place make it perfect for relaxation or meditation, as well as a stunning photography spot.

Ulun Danu Beratan Temple

Ulun Danu Beratan Temple is a temple located on the shores of Lake Beratan, Bedugul, Bali. This temple is one of Bali’s most famous tourism icons, with a very beautiful view and is often used as a picture on postcards and calendars.
Ulun Danu Beratan Temple is dedicated to Dewi Danu, the goddess of water, lakes, and rivers in Hindu belief. The temple complex consists of several magnificent buildings and pagodas, with typical traditional Balinese architecture. The most iconic is the eleven-storied pagoda that stands on a small island in the centre of the lake, as if it is “floating” on the water, especially when a light mist envelops the area.

Lake Beratan itself is located at an altitude of about 1,200 metres above sea level, so the air around the temple is cool and often misty. The beauty of the surrounding nature, including the mountains surrounding the lake, adds to the magical and sacred impression of Ulun Danu Beratan Temple. It is not only a tourist destination, but also a spiritual centre for the Balinese people, especially in ceremonies related to water and fertility.

Jatiluwih Rice Terrace

Jatiluwih is a village in Tabanan Regency, Bali, known for its spectacular terraced rice fields. Located at the foot of Mount Batukaru, Jatiluwih offers a soothing green panorama, with rice fields stretching as far as the eye can see. These rice fields are laid out in a beautiful terracing system and have become part of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage as part of subak, Bali’s centuries-old traditional irrigation system.

The name “Jatiluwih” comes from two Balinese words: “Jati” which means “true” or “original,” and “Luwih” which means “beautiful” or “good.” So, Jatiluwih can be translated as “true beauty,” which is a very apt description of this place.

Besides its natural beauty, Jatiluwih is also the centre of traditional agriculture in Bali. Here, visitors can see first-hand how local farmers plant and care for rice in traditional ways that have been passed down from generation to generation. The village also offers various tourist activities such as trekking and cycling, which allow travellers to enjoy the beauty of nature while exercising lightly.

Jatiluwih is the perfect place for those seeking tranquillity, natural beauty and an authentic cultural experience in Bali.

Tanah Lot Temple

Tanah Lot Temple is one of Bali’s most iconic and famous temples, located on a large rock off the coast of Tabanan, about 20 kilometres southwest of Denpasar. The temple is part of the Kahyangan Jagat temple in Bali, which serves as a sacred place to worship the god of the sea, Dewa Baruna.

Tanah Lot Temple has a very dramatic view, especially at sunset. At high tide, the temple looks as if it is “floating” on the water, while at low tide, visitors can walk close to the temple. The reef on which the temple stands is separated from the mainland and connected by a natural bridge of stone formed by centuries of abrasion.

Local legend has it that the temple was founded by a brahmin named Dang Hyang Nirartha in the 16th century, who discovered the place while on a spiritual journey in Bali. The temple is considered one of the most sacred places in Bali, and is often the site of religious ceremonies, especially those related to sea worship.

In addition to its spiritual and religious value, Tanah Lot Temple is also a major attraction for tourists due to the beauty of its natural surroundings. It is surrounded by the sea and high cliffs, with waves constantly crashing against the rocks, creating a breathtaking view. Around the temple area, there are also many souvenir shops, cafes and restaurants that offer beautiful views of the sea.
