Discover the Spiritual Heritage of Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu
Discover the Spiritual Heritage of Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu
Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu is a hidden gem! A water temple known for its sacred spring, where people come for melukat, a purification ritual tied to Hindu belief. Unlike the busier Tirta Empul, this temple is smaller, quieter, and surrounded by forests. It features terraced pools, shrines, and natural spring-fed ponds, with water believed to have spiritual cleansing properties that’ll wash away your negative energy and purify your soul. Dedicated to Dewa Vishnu, the god of water and preserver of life, this offers a chance to see AND experience how Balinese people maintain their spiritual practices in daily life!
Walking Tour at Tegallalang Rice Fields

Take a leisurely guided walk through the iconic Tegallalang Rice Fields, a UNESCO-recognized wonder in the heart of Bali. With every step, you’ll be enchanted by the lush green terraces and learn about the Subak irrigation system, a tradition that has sustained local farming for generations. Perfect for photography, meditation, or simple relaxation, it invites you to experience the natural beauty and cultural significance of one of Bali’s most cherished landscapes.
