Our day in Uluwatu Temple

🛕 Visit of the Uluwatu Temple 🛕

For our first day in Bali we decided to visit the Uluwatu Temple.

To get into the temple, you will have to pay the entrance (20 000 idr) and the parking (1000idr), which is a reasonable price.

To enter the temple area, you will also have to wear a sarong or a sash that they will lend you. However, girls, if you are menstruating, you cannot enter the temple because it is a sacred area.

Pura Luhur is one of the six main temples in Bali. It is one of the most popular place to visit if you embark on a cultural trip to the area.

It is famous for its beautiful scenery overlooking Uluwatu Bay. Perched on top of a cliff, about 70 meters above the ocean, it is also known for offering one of the most beautiful views at sunset.

You can enjoy a beautiful walk on the edge of the cliff with a breathtaking view of the waves hitting the rocks.

The temple is located at the top of a cliff with a typical architecture and a special atmosphere, typical of the Balinese culture.

A path is laid out all along the cliff to allow you to admire the landscape from all possible sides. Viewpoints are arranged to allow you to take your best pictures!📸

Ideal to make friends and family jealous... 😎

  

During your visit you can also change the environment by walking away from the cliffs, in the forest, and discover the beautiful vegetation and the many monkeys that live there. 

However, be careful with your things, the monkeys are not shy and do not hesitate to snatch your glasses, your phone or even your flip-flops! So hold on tight to your things or put them away, good to know 😉

Finally, you can attend a Kecak fire dance performance! This is a traditional dance that tells the story of the Hindu hero Ramayana who goes to rescue his wife who was kidnapped by a demon.

Do not hesitate to visit this beautiful place full of culture and Balinese magic 🌟
