Uluwatu temple perches dramatically atop a narrow cliff that commands a spectacular view of the Indian Ocean. Tourists flock to this 11th-century temple, attracted by its stunning sunset view.

At Batuan, the famous cultural center of Bali, a procession winds its way through the paddy fields. These dancers form a gambuh troupe; they perform one of the oldest dance-dramas on the island. It depicts chivalrous heroes and historical episodes from Bali’s mythical past.

Water from the mountain springs courses through a holy temple complex of courtyards and pavilions. Channeled water and pools have always been considered sacred sites, since water is so vital to Bali’s rice agriculture.
