Bali 6

Uluwatu, Bali

Pura Luhur is a Balinese Sea Temple at Uluwatu on Bali. It was built in the 11th century. It is located in Pecatu village, Kuta South District of Badung Regency of Bali.Officially known as Pura Luhur Uluwatu (yes, that's the real name: "Luhur" means "something of divine origin" while "Uluwatu" can be broken into "ulu" which means "land's end" and "watu" means "rock" in the old language).
Entrance fee is IDR3,000 per person




This is the most spectacular temple on the island of Bali. The inner sanctum of the pura is perched majestically on the edge of a steep cliff that towers above the legendary surf breaks of southern Bali.
The views are best enjoyed on two different vantage points on both northern and southern portions of the area. At sunset, Kecak dance performance is held here everyday. And, it goes without saying that sunset viewing at Uluwatu is one of the must-do in Bali.








Beware of the monkeys here. Precautionary signs have been put at a few places to remind about their aggressiveness. Please take off the sunglasses/spectacles and hid the camera, necklaces
