This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Lempuyang Temple, Jl. Pura Telaga Mas Lempuyang, Karangasem 80852 Indonesia
Nicknamed “The Gateway to Heaven” this mountain temple has become the top priority for everyone who’s on a mission to capture the most Instagrammable spots in Bali. Located 600 meters above sea level at the hillside slope of Mount Lempuyang in east Bali, the “Gateway” itself offers a backdrop of Mount Agung and will get you a feeling of reaching out to sky to catch a glimpse of cloud while breathing cold and humid air (please remember to cover your shoulder).
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Tirta Gangga, Jl. Abang-Amlapura, Karangasem 80852 Indonesia
Literally means “Blessed Water of Ganges,” this water palace was built and designed by Anak Agung Anglurah Ketut Karangasem, the last ruling King of Karangasem who happened to be a prominent canal engineer in 1948.
Tirta Gangga was created to improve the holiness of the spring water and to serve as a place for comtemplation, rest and joy for everyone. The 1.2-hectare palace comprises mainly of ponds, plants and sculptures mixing Balinese and Chinese style. The stepping stone and the fountain are the main spectacle but you can swim in the pond (which is regarded as holy) and feed the fish for great picture and relaxation.
