(1) Even though you should visit if you are in Bali, this is not as spectacular as other temples in Asia, but it's different, not great
(2) What a fantastic View from this temple. Absolutely breathtaking. A very worthwhile visit. Take a guide, as they are always very helpful, and give tips as to what to do.
(3) Perched at the top of a cliff, the waves come crashing at your feet making your tour tremendously exciting and memorable!\n\nThe temple was closed to public access so you cant really go inside or up.\nThere are countless cafes and restaurants in the area making it popular during pleasant weather.\n\nThere is also an authentic Ralph Lauren store nearby - good deals if you shop in dollars or UAE Dirhams!
(4) A great temple on the beach, beautiful beach views from the top, a broad, widely available quiet hotel away from the hustle of the city, the surrounding community with the native culture of Bali is very attractive for those who want to be alone or pleased with serenity
(5) Nice temple near the sea shore.However you cannot go into the temple itself just see the suroundings. Many tourists of course... It still worths the visit. I would recommend to go first thing in the morning or late afternoon because of the hot clima.
(6) The money collected for admission is clearly being invested in the temple grounds. It is probably the most picturesque temple in Bali\n\nThis is a very popular temple - so expect traffic delays. We were stuck for almost two hours due to the narrow road and multiple busses making the trek over the mountain to Lovina.
(7) I have been twice to this place this year and both time been disappointed. Too many people there, more interested in selfies that anything else. The place is not set up to bring the right value on theses temples.
(8) Very nice temple to visit with lovely gardens. Can get busy especially in regard to parking but worth it. Very scenic. Small entrance fee, but much larger than we expected.
(9) Go there before sunset to enjoy the temples, the sea, dancers. Sit and have a drink in caffe and watch the sunset.
(10) As expected super busy around sun set time, amazing sunset!!! Just have to dodge all the people for a good shot, temple was nothing really exciting, just the ocean view and rock formation. Loads of touristy stuff around etc. Do not eat at Warung Mandela, looks amazing with the white table cloths and view but food is a disgrace and staff are oddly rude.
(11) The place is situated away from the main stream, but easy to get to. Huge parking spaces and there's a parking fee. The main attraction is located by the coast and has an entrance fee to it.\nThe place used to be very beautiful and sacred and now it has commercialized to be a tourist attraction. There are many kinds of shops around it. \nThe view is still very spectacular, especially for sunsets. The tourist are mostly there during the mornings and sunsets.\nStill worth a place to visit, probably once. It still has the iconic temple on a rock out at sea.
(12) Words are not enough to describe the beauty of this place. Temple surrounded by the late, beautiful mountain in the background, very well maintained garden and fast changing weather makes it one day picnic sopt. As other temples, place of ceremony is accessible to only Balinese but you will not disappoint with it as you can enjoy beauth of the places with cameras and selfie sticks. \n\nWe went there on our way back to ubud after dolphin citing. We also enjoyed awesome vegetarian buffet during the lunch. One of the best memory to take away from Bali. \n\nNot everyone can enter the temple. But tourists can enjoy the beauty of this place.\nThis place is meant for photographers. So much to click around. We got maximum photographs at this place.
(13) We hired a car and driver for the four hour trip from Ubud to Permuteran. This beautiful lake and shrine was recommended as a mid way stop. It was lovelier than we could have imagined. A great place to stretch our legs, enjoy the views, and experience a serene environment. It is well worth the drive!
(14) Its such a nice temple and easy to reach. Just a little bit up the hill. If you want the amazing picture with the „reflection“ then you just have to pay some small money and wait if there are some others around. Its quite funny but looks super cool. Especially if you can see the mountain in the back.
(15) The temple is perched in the ocean. While the viewing areas are crowded,the sight of the temple is exquisite! One can take postcard quality pictures. While we were unable to approach the temple itself, we marveled at the location and were able to approach the rocky shoreline. We also enjoyed the walk around the temple grounds. A attraction not to be missed!
(16) This temple was incredible with view of the sea and also the beautiful sunset. many tourists come to this temple to make the photos wedding, especially Asian people
(17) Here you can find a peace of you soul. It's a must in semyniak that you have to see. Evry temple is unique.
(18) One of the Best places to visit in Bali. Great experience. Arround the temple, there is a big open market with a variety of souvenits at very good price.
(19) We went in the mid afternoon. Very busy and difficult to get photos without plenty of other tourists in them. The Temple it fantastic although you cannot enter. The walk around the cliff ridge line is also worth doing to gain amazing vistas out to sea and further down the coast which are not visible from down by the Temple. Some construction currently going on which can be noisy. More touts and market sellers around here than other temples we went to. Definitely worth a look.
(20) We didn't go down to the temple itself, rather watched the sun go down from one of the many restaurants perched appropriately on the hill.\n\nThe Markets etc were nothing special and it was certainly very crowded, but there was easily enough space at the restaurants to get a good seat.\n\nIf you want to take photos of the sunset over the temple get to the restaurants a little earlier to get a front row table.
(21) I visited this place the same day as Ujung Water Palace. I had a great time. It's a feast for the eyes, with lush vegetation, stone carvings of gods/deities and pools full of huge koi which you can feed as you walk on the stepping stones over one of the pools. There's also a holy spring which you can bathe in for a small cost, although it was a bit chilly for me! There's also a Hindu temple and an amazing banyan tree. The restaurant is good too; great foo and amazing views, although a couple of the staff seemed to have problems with their maths when it came to giving change! Would still go back though.
(22) The temple is fine and the lake is beautiful, but it is swarming with tourists and traffic is brutal. The area itself is great and we had a great time in the more mountainous north of Bali, but this temple was really just one of the many reasons to hed north. We also hiked Mount Batur nearby (even more beautiful and surrounded by largest lake in Bali) and checked out some of the waterfalls nearby. Nice to check the box and see this famous temple, so I get it if you still want to go, but just make it a quick stop and keep moving. As with everything in Bali, if you go early, less tourist, less painful traffic.
(23) Amazing views as you go up and down the steps.\nPlenty of photo opportunities.\nWild monkeys around (watch our for your valuables! Saw a monkey trying to grab a a mobile phone on a lanyard from someone's neck! Another monkey stole a can of deodorant from another tourist's bag!)\n\nSome parts of the place can get overcrowded. I think there were around 4 buses of tourists on the day we went here. Maybe a good half of them with their own selfie sticks!\n\nDo remember that this is a holy place for the Balinese, and please dress appropriately.
(24) Spectacular views of the coast and the temple out on the island, even though you can't go across to the temple is definitely worth seeing.
(25) This Hindu temple is situate on the southern part of Bali standing majestically on the edge of a cliff with a sharp drop to the sea. The walk up to the temple involves climbing a steep stairs and another Ali along the edge of the cliff to the view point which commands a spectacular view of the temple and the sea below. There is a lot of history attached to the temple and most visited temple in Bali. A must visit on your Bali itinerary .
(26) The temple at the sea is spectacular . beautiful area to walk and see the lovely beach . Good place to take a good pictures especially at sunset
(27) Another fantastically beautiful temple. Well there are two there, one in the sea and the other one is till attached to the land, but both look amazing. You can even catch some surfers surfing in the cove. Brilliant views! Make sure you walk down all the paths along the cliff as you can see more into the seashore. Very busy when I went, but don't think there'll be a quite time to visit.
(28) Very nice area, takes about 2 hours from Seminyak to reach. We hired a private tour guide to help as the roads were super confusing to get there by motor bike. There are strawberry farms and luwak coffee farms on the way once you get into the mountains, most appear to be typical tourist traps. \nThere are bathrooms outside, 2000r to use. There are also bathrooms inside.\nThe guy at the ticket desk asks for the proper amount of money but didn't give us a ticket, just waved us through, I suspect the workers keep a fair share of the money. \nAmazing temple on the water, surrounded by mountains and a nice little flower garden and interesting animal shaped plants and places to sit for good pictures. \nBest of all, there is a place to \rent\" exotic animals to take pictures with. They had miniature owls, a huge Python and several large bats. I did the bat, cost 20,000r."
(29) We was here few minutes before close. It was amazing, you must go throw the water to holy place with holy water. Price 60.000 IDR per person is fine. Enjoy this place early then we.
(30) Visited this temple on the 5th day of our stay late morning and we were pleasantly surprised to find a beautiful view. Wow a temple located in the sea. You need to walk a few meters in the sea before you reached the temple and while we were walking we had a big wave that just washed us close to waist length and that was a great feeling we all had. Once inside we were blessed by the priest with the holy water. Really very nice temple. We were lucky to get a glimpse of the snakes after crossing over and we all touched the snakes. A place not to be missed in Bali.
(31) After the day at the Taman Ayun Temple and the Jatiluwih rice fields, this is the perfect place to end the day watching the sunset.\n\nLoved the beach and one of the most recommended places in Bali
(32) Crowded but worth to see. The temple located at lake Bratan, that's why it has really good view. There are restaurants that you can sit and enjoy the lake view and the temple.
(33) Somehow this one passes for the most beautiful of all of temples that there are in Bali. What makes it unique is the location, obviously, however the temple itself is really not worth mentioning. Let alone the hordes of people who all try to get the next best picture, especially at sunset time.
(34) This temple is to enjoy the sunset view. You can visit the temple premises closely only if there is no high tide. Get yourself a picture by the local photographers. They really make a lot of effort in just Rp20000. Also don't forget to look around and also go to the Batu Bolong temple nearby. The view from there is spectacular! We ate at the ocean restaurant but didn't like the food at all. Skip that if possible.
(35) We reached the temple by the sea near sunset. The view was spectacular as the sun goes down and the tide comes in. The waves get higher and higher and more people converge onto the beach, to watch the sunset and to be awed by the waves.It is an experienced to be there.
(36) Great temple in Bali, I was there with my wife in November, the view from the top of this temple is nice, feel so fresh and comfortable.
(37) Featured on Brochures and TV alike this has become very 'over commercialised' including all of the tourist shops you are forced to walk past in order to get to the temple.\nA few viewing spots available but you cannot get close to any of the actual temples, or take anything like the featured photos (which probably use drones along with Photoshop!\nEntry a rather pricey IDR60k (by Balinese standards).\n2157
(38) We had been to this place around morning time. This temple is on the sea shore. \nThey don't let us to go inside the temple but can just take pics nearby.\nLocation is good but too crowded.
(39) This is a unique spot with a beautiful temple perched on top of a rock at the edge of the ocean shoreline. There are lots of shops outside the temple grounds to enjoy.
(40) You have to get there reasonably early in order to find a nice spot. Ideally try to get to one of the restaurants overlooking the temple so you can not only watch the sunset, but catch a glimpse of the buddhist prayer ceremonies that go on within it. Tourists cannot go into this temple but you can watch the goings on from across the water. The sunset is magical. Do not use any of the toilets in these restaurants. Watch out for mosquitoes too! We got some beautiful photos here.
(41) Check the weather before coming here...beautiful temple, perfect during sunset. Its the temple featured in 50,000 bank notes. Ifnu have time, its fun to ride the speed boat around the lake just next to the temple. Recommended.
(42) I went to the temple park during a holy Hindu festival. Hundreds of people traditionally dressed walked from the local town 5 kilometers away as part of the ceremony. I guess there was an actually temple, but they wouldn't let me in. No tourists allowed. So I took a long walk around the property and enjoyed being there. They give out a wrap to cover your legs after paying the entrance fee. I think it was a few dollars, but it should have been free.
(43) This is a must-see! We went in the morning and there weren't many people there. We did not go to all of the levels. The first few levels are the most stunning, from what I've been told. And stunning they are. Make sure your camera works well. You cannot miss the photos from this landmark. Keep in mind it is a temple so you will need to bring the appropriate reverence - and a sarong - to this sacred temple.
(44) This Temple has large garden and if you plan to visit I suggest to stop overnight in Bedugul choosing villa close to the lake with beautiful views to mountains and of course lake.
(45) It's the temple on the lake you can see on the 50.000 IDR bank note.\n\nBut its a quick visit, we had the chance to go there in april late in the afternoon so it wasn't overcrowded (well the weather wasn't at his finest neither).\n\nWell if it's on your road and you have a little time you can take a look (the entrance fee is quiet low, like 30.000 IDR), well a quick look just to take a picture of it (or a selfie)\n\nThe gardens around are very nice too (but also small)\n\n(And that's it)
(46) It's hard to imagine not coming to this temple while visiting Bali. Definitely a must see and therefore it's almost always full of visitors. Especially popular for sunset views.
(47) Hearing it's a temple you may not be very kicked about visiting but do not miss it irrespective of which area of bali you are in and how much travel time it takes. It's nature at its glory ..The setting ..The temple ..The sea and the sunset ..worth trip. You can take a small walk around and visit the spring inside the cave but only if the tide is low. Then walk up to one of the cafés and enjoy a beer watching the most magnificent sunset of your lives.
(48) The temple is not open to visitors but only for the priests.. so have a good evening here with your co-travelers admiring the beauty of rough waves of Indian ocean and the pretty sunset.
(49) Nice views from the path leading towards the temple. Unfortunately visitors are not allowed inside , don't know why. ?!!
(50) This place is one of the famous place in Bali that people wants to come. There are the temple there. Nice temple, nice view. But the best is if you like to shopping, this place is correct for you, cause the price is pretty cheap.
(51) Out of all the many temples in Bali this is my favourite!You can't actually visit the temple itself but the architecture and setting in the water and against the hill is breathtaking!
(52) not far from cuta its a temple as many others all around the island should be there at the writetime to celebrate any ceremony.recomanded for surfers nice spot
(53) Not a bad venue.. but go either, very early .. to avoid all the school buses or very late...to catch sunset.. the temple faces due west.. so with a bit of awkward twisting.. you should be able to get the ideal selfie for social media. \nthat being said.. \nas far as all the other temples go in Bali.. this temple made the hit list because of the position on a cliff top.. the temple site itself is closed for tourists, as it is an active place of worship... and it misses a great deal of art and design that makes Bali so unique.. \nagain note... \nits far away from everything else.. I mean REALLY FAR .. and with traffic in Bali what was meant to be a quick 30 minute drive turned into a journey into the mountains... this is one place you don't want to hike / bike or bus too.. grab a driver for the day and make you way.. there are lots of hills.. lots of traffic.. zero too no traffic rules or enforcement.. and pretty much everyone drives per their own impression of what the rule of law might be.\nBack to the temple.. \nDress code.. modest... your entrance fee will also include a sarong that will need to be returned after the visit. \nfrom the entrance gate it's an easy down hill walk.. but coming back.. if you are not active.. pace yourself.. the incline can take the wind out of you.
(54) Wow what a beautiful peaceful lace.\nJust gorgeous and relaxing.\nVery religious place for Balinese.\nLoved it here.
(55) Visited this place as a day trip from Sanur. We hired a vehicle from the hotel and went there. The temple is situated at the sea. We checked the time and just reached at the time of low tide. Tourist not allowed inside the temple, one can go and see it from outside. Locals will offer to allow entry to go up against a tip. It's not worth as one can climb may be 4 or 5 steps only. View is really beautiful and one should not miss it if in Bali irrespective of religious belief.
(56) The temple is really boring for someone who travels a lot and has seen some temples. The actual attraction here are the cliffs. The view is amazing.
(57) You can take very nice pictures at this temple. \nThe lake with a fishermen as background for the pagoda's . The local pilgrims, many small ornamental details.
(58) Beautiful setting, with some spots that are peaceful even when there are a lot of visitors. Nice photo opportunities. There is a park just right beside the temple and it was nice and peaceful to enjoy the afternoon
(59) Of all those temples I have visited in Bali, this one is the best (in terms of surroundings, \architecture\", view, geography, ..). How awesome isn't it to have a temple on an \"island\" (depending on the season) and be surrounded by the ocean?! Also, you can experience a beautiful sunset. The priest that had the temple built there, was a genius. There are nearby restaurants that provide meals and drinks while relaxing with a view at the ocean. As this is a popular tourist attraction, it can be very crowded though"
(60) This is a beautiful temple to look at from afar. You can't actually go to them temple, but you can see take some great photos of it. It's nice and cool with the ocean breeze being that it's right on the water. There are lots of shops and restaurants nearby as well.
