(1) Perhaps the most peacefull place in the world. There is here a special atmosphere and, if you are lucky, you'll visit this temple during a ceremony and...please respect and enjoy it!
(2) It is a beautiful temple located on a cliff with beautiful cliff and ocean views. During low tide you can walk on the sea bed around the temple, but can't go up the steps or in the temple if you are not from  Bali. There are a lot of tourists and place is very crowded. The \holy snake\" an albino snake in a hole in the sand is nothing special (expect to pay for the privilege of seeing the snake). There are a lot of shops catering to tourists around the parking lot."
(3) This temple is located on the ocean, there are two smaller temples as well within walking distance. Breathtaking views, and the local market is the cheapest and has the best bargains in all of Bali. One of the highlights of our trip!
(4) Though you really don't get to see inside the temple, the scenery is breathtaking here. We visited when flowering trees took over the landscape beyond too.  Take some time to enjoy that view, in spite of the crowds.  We know people come here for sunset, but we preferred to just visit during daylight. As everyone else has already said- there are monkeys and they take stuff.  We saw one take some glasses and one of the people who work here chased it to try to retrieve it without luck.
(5) The location makes this one a little special so if looking to see a temple this has to be top of the list.
(6) Beautiful area with lovely views of the island temple. You cannot travel across but there is a lot of action going on there\n\nThere is a market which is well worth a walk around. We found the cheapest prices in Bali here.
(7) The temple is beautiful but offers very little difference from the other temples around the city. Parts were blocked off because they were solely for worshipers.\nThe view of the sunset and seaside however, were stunning! Simply gorgeous.... I would visit again but only for the view if the sun kissing the sea.
(8) Saw this temple during a long weekend vacation in Bali. It took a while to drive up here, but it was definitely worth it. The floating towers in the water are sublime, and the artistry of the temple's other elements such as its statues and large gates is also wonderful. The landscaping is excellent as well.\n\nThe restaurant/buffet isn't great, but it's serviceable for a quick meal before getting back on the road.\n\nDefinitely recommended!
(9) one of the most popular tourist attractions in Bali, I visited here earlier this year. the first time I arrived at this place I saw a very wide parking lot, after that we walked in and were welcomed with shops that sell the typical Balinese souvenirs, after passing through the shops we will meet the steps to go down to the beach and it turns out that the scenery is beautiful once with a temple on a big rock that is right on the beach. I arrived in the afternoon so the sea water had been installed so we could not enter the temple. I think it's better to come during the day if you want to enter the temple. but here is also a good place to enjoy the sunset when the weather supports.
(10) A must when in Bali. It is a little far around 40 minute drive with the traffic, but as I said it is a must. Beautiful, amazing view. to get there you have to walk through many local market shops ( very cheap) before you see the temple. It was a little crowded but still you can enjoy the view and take an unforgettable picture.
(11) The time to visit this is definitely near sunset time. The location is breathtaking . The waves crashing against the temple hill is a sight to behold. It is a short walk to the temple.
(12) So glad to come here. Breathtakingly beautiful and with the waves crashing below, you really feel spiritual. Spend at least a couple of hours here as a minimum. Beautiful temples and as usual a bit touristy. Would very highly recommend.
(13) The place is very very beautiful. But always crowded. Not much of a walk. So anyone can go there. You have to go down to the Temple and beach also. But you cannot enter the Temple. Best time would be about 7 or 8 in the morning.
(14) You pay 50.000 per Person entrance. Additional you have to pay parking and toiletts, they just try to squeeze out every coin they can from the tourists. The temple is nice with the lake and the mountain in the background, but with all the tourists not enjoyable. Also besides the temple building, you can always see on the pictures, the complex is not nice at all. They have deer in cage and you can make pictures with a snake. What a terrible place. Not worth a visit.
(15) We arrived at the temple late morning, and surprisingly, it wasn't busy and we went straight in. All buildings are well decorated with gold and vibrant colours. Peaceful surroundings, cool breeze over the lake, It's a beautiful site and a superb temple.
(16) Came here for the sunset tour when it was raining, so I didn't get to see the nice sunset. The trail from above was nice and short. There's also a beach area access for people to go down and walk up to the temple.
(17) Very nice temple.Very scenic. It's a beautiful view to see the temple on the rock surrounded by the sea. After buying the entrance ticket we have to walk through a series of many shops to reach the temple. If you want to street shopping this is the place. You can complete your shopping in Bali here.There is lot of variety and prices are reasonable.You have to walk through ankle to knee deep water to reach the temple. You can go only to the base of the temple but not into the main temple which is on the top of the rock. You can go into the cave in the base take the blessing of the priests and take holy water. If you feel like you can give donation which is voluntary. There can be huge crowds at the sun set which offers most scenic view.  If you want to avoid crowds go in the morning or at least couple of hours before sunset,Get a professional photo which is reasonably priced.
(18) Come prepared to spend a day here...usually done as half day trip...our taxi cost us 36 dollars.  Round trip. It gives a/ c , comfort in the heat, and flexibility.\nShopping is much cheaper in tanur lot...I found myself buying ....as things were priced at 10.000 rupiah - 1 dollar. , \n\nThe site IIs beautiful , and temples are a treat to watch.\nIf you are a sea person find a restaurant With  a view and spend some time wAtching the waves...drinks and food are reasonably priced compared to sanur, it is much cheaper.  I had some great photography with the waves against the stones...simply superb. \n\nWind the day up with watching the sunset. \n\nRelatively crowded with plenty of tourists.  Our driver was flexible, took us back via some shops and terraced fields...
(19) We visited during a ceremony so the experience was that much more interesting as we got to see the procession of believers cross the water to enter the temple with their offerings. Other than this, the views are what makes it a unique experience. There is also an entry fee and you need to wear a sarong and sash before entering.
(20) A truly stunning setting for this unique old temple.  Even in the rain this was a beautiful sight and had it not been such inclement weather we most definitely would have stayed longer to admire this beautiful place.  Lovely coastline on either side of the temple make it a fantastic photo opportunity too.  Negatives are that the place is incredibly busy, even in the rain, so you could find yourself in a queue, or a crowd instead of being able to find space to appreciate the really stunning setting.  Well worth a visit.
(21) Well worth the drive up to the highlands of Bali. \nThe temple is located in a stunning location, right on the bank of a crater-lake. There is a park surrounding the temple, with statues and flowers. Because of the altitude, it is usually cooler here than the lowlands, a welcome escape from the heat for a day. \nYou can also find a bunch of restaurants in the area as well.
(22) If you come to Bali and not visit this place then your Bali tour will be incomplete. A beautiful place stone structure temple in the sea and can see beautiful the sunset from this place \nOnly thing you require to go into the temple is that you have to wear traditional attire, local people used to wear the same though they don’t allow tourists in the temple unless you aren’t in traditional attire.
(23) Amazing.\nI believe this is the real tourism destination if you visiting Bali. Should come and see the beyond of the ambiance. \nTemple, ocean, and people's around very makes me feel great.\nThe photographer around the area also offering photo with temple's background.\nReally love
(24) This temple is worth visiting, it is a nice day trip, depending where you are staying from.  You could also take a boat on the lake.
(25) This was the first sight we saw in Bali and it's magnificent. \n\nTechnically this is not a temple. It's a garden or a Taman. But that doesn't matter its a must see. \n\nDo try to go all around the sight and spend time here. It's so peaceful. Also the toilets here are free and quite an experience. :)
(26) We love temples and this one was so beautiful. We love the cool of the elevation at around 5500 feet. We saw plants growing that would not do well at lower elevations there and to our surprise they grow lots of Strawberries up in that elevation. Bali being very crowded and steamy hot, we found this place to be a nice cool oasis away from the teams of motor-scooters.
(27) During Sunset time we visited this temple which is at the top of hill & at the bank of Indian Ocean. The View was breathtaking which made the sunset moment so beautiful.
(28) Its a temple built on sea shore. When low tides you have to cross the sea.You may have to dip leg in water uptill waist. Great fun in beautiful scenery with cool sea breeze flowing.
(29) This temple is incredible, truly breathtaking.\nGo early in the morning to avoid the mid-day stifling heat! \nTry and go on a colder day to avoid heat exhaustion.
(30) Very cool temple out over the water, easy walk down through the market stalls to an amazing outlook at the temple on the rocks. Was low tide so we walked right out too it along with the other hundreds of visitors at the time. Very popular spot for sunset so get in early if you want a good viewing spot.
(31) This temple although not huge, is absolutely beautiful with manicured lawns and such a beautiful backdrop.  Ideal place to get loads of photos and as it gets quite busy, you may have to wait awhile for the magic shot - but it is worth it.  The restaurant there offers a buffet lunch, and even though it is not a huge variety, it is beautifully cooked and presented.  Soup, main course and dessert.  Love the black rice pudding with coconut milk - delicious. As it is in the mountain region, temperatures are cooler, so it really was magical.
(32) If you go to Bali this is one of those places you have to visit. For me it was kind of special because me and my friends went just 2 days before Niepy Day so it was crowded by locals dressed with they're ceremony suits making offer ends to the Gods and that creates a magical atmosphere. Also the Temple is so so beautiful because it s on the ocean but has sweet water and have trees on the Top. Great place to visit and the little shops near by are very cheap so it s also good for shopping. Try to feel the magic of it and enjoy
(33) This impressive and beautiful Balinese Hindu temple by the sea is definitely a great place for photography unfortunately we were there during high tide.\n\nWe walk around the viewing side which was pretty challenging as we had to jostle among selfie-stick tourist! \n\nDefinitely worth visiting this iconic site.
(34) Unique and amazing place that is must visit. Please get ready in shorts and flip flop if you plan to cross over to the temple. Sun block and shade is a must. Good place for photo. Don't worry, you have lots good point for photo. 😁
(35) Do yourself a favour and make the climb to the top of this ancient temple , for a truly breathtaking and inspiring view .\nIf you've been looking for the ultimate in ocean view scenery or just want to appreciate traditional Bali culture and art, you won't want to miss this !
(36) Such an impressive complex in a great setting on the shores of the lake. Because of the full moon there was lots going on in the temple and we were lucky enough to see beautiful ceremony (pity there are so many tourists)
(37) A truly stunning temple in the mountains of East Bali with a beautiful view of the surrounding area. The architecture is truly impressive, there is a lot of steps to get to the top, and almost no tourists. Apparently, there are a few more temples after the first one, but you would have to spend many hours and definitely get a local guide if you wish to venture further. It's certainly worth the visit if you are in East Bali.
(38) Awesome place . Interesting history . Worth the travelling. Make sure you know about the sea tides. High tides the temple will be closed . Also make you get a driver or cab to bring you to and fro.
(39) Maybe it was the timing of my visit, but I found this place overrated. Price is almost double--50,000--of most other temples in Bali. Packed with tour groups and school children. Temples were beautiful to see on the water, but surroundings felt too manicured and artificial. If you've done other temples already in Bali, give this one a pass.
(40) This is an exquisite water temple set on the banks of Lake Bratan (Beratan). It is nice to go there during high tide so that one can truly appreciate its beauty as a water temple. We went there when the tide was low but still the temple was photogenic. There are boats for hire and one can go boating in the lake. Since it is located on top of Mt. Catur, the visitors enjoy the cool and crisp mountain air. No need to wear sarong if one happens to be wearing short pants or short skirts when visiting this temple. Be that as it may, it would be respectful to wear appropriate temple attire when visiting this site and similar places.
(41) It kinda feels like a hindu theme park but it is a joyous kinda way....even when it is packed it never feels crowded and it is truly beautiful....one of those places I cant ride past without taking (another) look. Wonderful place....and you can get wet there too.
(42) A great spot to visit at Sunrise for some amazing shots of the water temple.  The grounds are clean and in the morning it can be very quiet.  Later in the day can be many people so avoid this if you come for the photograph.
(43) For me this was one of the most beautiful temples i visited in Bali. Set on a lake surrounded by mountains and greenery it was very serene and certainly worth the trip from Ubud.
(44) Went here in november this year, absolutely stunning, amazing views, beautiful old temple, unbelievable
(45) Very well visited temple just off shore. Picturesque with lots of great photo opportunities . Fair bit of walking and steps to get to it and lots of shops hawking tourist wares. Site is somewhat over run with tourists, luckily tourists can't actually access temple Still a good place to visit and is apparently stunning at sunset.
(46) This temple was beautiful, however tide was high and there was a backlog of people trying to be taken one by one by the locals that worked there. Would ahve been much more amazing in the sunshine.
(47) One of the best places in Bali. Temple where you can see the mesmerising scenarios. The design of the temple is just amazing. It will take some time to reach here from the Bali town. So try to start your journey just after breakfast. Some shops are there to buy local crafts(bargain please).
(48) It's a must see place around. A beautiful pagoda over the lake and other temple architecture such as the profane door and sacred door. A lot of people here.
(49) I was really looking forward to this visit as the photos are just magic (just like the ones we took), but in reality once you pass the ticket payment /parking area,  you are disappointed due to the enormous amount of souvenirs shops ( with horrible tacky souvenirs) . The problem is that the commercial area is almost glued to the temple. )\nWorth the visit but don't expect that WOW feeling\ !"
(50) its one of those iconic temples - its pictures are always splashed in bali commericals etc so in that sense a must see. But the actual temple was not too large, the garden and lake are large but the temple building it self is smallish and not much to see. Also it is crowded (as can be expected) the mountain behind was wrapped in clouds/mist when we visited - visit it cause it is famous but there is not enough here to spend even an hour at this spot.
(51) One of the famous temples/spots on Bali I was expecting something spectaculair. But it was at best an average experience. The temple itself is defenitely not the most beautiful on Bali and the sunset itself is like all over Bali.
(52) This is well worth going to, its a local temple for local people to pay their respects, loved the whole thing that was going on when we were her. It was a bit of a festival, so we hired a driver and went the big drive up there, then the heavens opened, oh my the heavens opened.\n\nWas a bit of a damp tramp up the big steps her but as I said well worth it, we never went to the nest temple as it was well over an hour to get there but it was apperently more of the same.\n\nVery enjoyable and again, lovely people.
(53) Really nice place to visit. Even though there is a temple you don’t need to wear a Sarong when entering.\nThe entry fee is 3000 Rupiah which is around £1.65 roughly.\nDefinitely a great place to take pics. I went there around 8am and it was really quiet so took my time with pictures. There is also a boat in there which you can hire and it costs20000 rupiah and that is about £1 for three rides around their lake. I would definitely recommend.
(54) This temple on the cliff is considered one of the sacred places in Bali. It was such a sight to see miles of untouched cliff area around the temple
(55) A touristy place, at tide this unique temple on a tiny island is separated from the main land.  You can cross the water to visit at certain times of the day.  Usually visitors will seat in some basic, open air cafes along the beach across the temple.  You can watch great sunset from these cafes.  Lot of souvenirs shop and there is also traditional dance performance but not as spectacular as in Uluwatu.
(56) Very nice temple on a rock. Go at sunset for the nicest views and pictures. Can get very crowded. At low tide you can visit the holy water fountain.
(57) The temple is known from many pictures put of tour guides, internet etc.\n\nThe only thing special about is that a part stands in the water.\nAt the moment not even that is the case. The water level of the lake is to low.\n\nIf you're around ok to see but don't spend to much time getting there.\n\nWe've been there aroun 9 am and there were not so many people.
(58) The temple is up the hill. Not a lot of stairs, you can easily climb. A loot of monkeys so be careful or they'' snatch your stuff. You need to wear a sarong to go there. available for free outside. You can skip the kechak dance unless really really interested. The sunset views from here are breathtaking. Lot of photo ops. A must visit.
(59) This is place is very beautiful the location in high ground so very cold when rainy...but temple is so great.\nWe go  here with family and lucky to see the praying ceremony in bali...great temple in nice location👍
(60) The best view is at sunset from the cliff on the right side. Lots of people though, so be early. At evening when I visited ther was a low tide, so Temple was not surounded by sea.
