East Bali
This is a VW jeep East Bali tour into a part of Bali which is rich in culture and beautiful landscapes. We drive small country roads through dramatic mountainous landscapes and time forgotten villages.
PURA KEHEN: Bangli. Probably the most beautiful temple in Bali. Built in the 11th century, the temple hosts the biggest banyan tree of the island, a holy tree for the Balinese. The temple enshrines holy scripts and is decorated with the most remarkable stone carvings.
SELAT: astonishing rice terraces, with a spectacular view. You will witness the planting and harvesting of rice in a way the generations of Balinese have done it for thousands of years. Your guide will explain to you the world’s most astonishing and biggest irrigation system.
BESAKIH: You stop at the island‘s most mystical and sacred temple, an ancient building to worship the ancestors. This is the most important temple of the island, located at the slope of over 9000 ft reaching peak of Mount Agung volcano.
A long , scenic drive following the slopes of Mount Agung with rice terraces, snake fruit plantations and old villages leads us to the east cost of Bali. Lunch break will be in a beach front restaurant in Candi Dasa.
After a comfortable lunch it is just a view minutes drive up a valley to the old and mysterious village of Tenganan. A Bali Aga (Tribal) Village with some astounishing traditions, dances , music, and strange rituals. This village has been an ethnological sensation, barely untouched by the surrounding Hindu culture.
On our way back we follow the coast line and stop at one of the black sand beaches.
Later we visit Klungkung, a historical significant city, which was the residence of Bali’s highest raja, the Dewa Agung.
In the centre of the city you can make some great pictures at the Kerta Gosa, once the highest court of Bali.
