Tips

- Besakih Temple requires modest dress and a sarong. Provided sarongs may be basic; consider bringing your own for comfort.
- Religious ceremonies at either temple can cause temporary closures without advance notice. Tour operators cannot always predict these events.

- Lempuyang photo queues are shortest before 9 AM and after 3 PM. Discuss timing with your guide to optimise the schedule.
Summary
Magical Bali is calling you, and you'd better be ready to answer, with your camera! Get picked up from your hotel and soon you'll be en route to the majestic Lempuyang Temple in the eastern part of Bali. Along the way, pass long stretches of pristine rice paddies, travel along winding roads, and marvel at breathtaking mountains, including the mighty Mount Agung.
Skip the loooooong ticket lines to take your photo at the Gates of Heaven, (the famous gates with their "reflective waters" look like a real miracle on camera!)
Visit Tirta Gangga, a former royal water palace. Explore the water palace's tiered fountains, gardens, and stone sculptures of mythical creatures spouting water into pools.
See Mount Agung, Telaga Waja river, and the rice fields, before your visit to the biggest temple in Bali, Pura Besakih. Discover why it is the most important, the largest, and the holiest temple of Hindu religion in Bali. What a day!
