Stop 1

Besakih Temple, known as Pura Besakih in Balinese, is the largest and holiest Hindu temple complex in Bali, Indonesia. Located on the slopes of Mount Agung, the island's highest volcano, it stands at approximately 1,000 meters above sea level, offering stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes.
Besakih is often referred to as the Mother Temple of Bali and is the center of Hindu spiritual life on the island.
The complex consists of 23 separate temples spread across six levels, which are terraced up the mountain.

Major ceremonies, called Odalan, are held regularly, drawing thousands of worshippers.
The annual Panca Wali Krama ceremony, held every ten years, is one of the most important rituals, aimed at purifying the world.

Tukad Cepung Waterfall is a hidden gem located near the village of Penida Kelod in the Bangli Regency of Bali, Indonesia. Renowned for its ethereal beauty, this waterfall is uniquely situated inside a cave, creating stunning light rays as sunlight filters through the jungle canopy and reflects off the water.
The waterfall is enclosed within high cliff walls, with water cascading down from about 15 meters.
The path is surrounded by towering trees, ferns, and natural rock formations, offering a serene nature experience.
To reach the waterfall, visitors must trek through lush jungle trails, descend a series of steps, and walk along the riverbed.

The Rendang Rice Terraces are a stunning agricultural landscape located in the Rendang District of Karangasem Regency in East Bali. Nestled amidst the lush hills with a backdrop of Mount Agung, these terraces are a testament to the ancient subak irrigation system, a UNESCO-recognized method of water management that has sustained Balinese rice cultivation for centuries.

The rice fields are meticulously carved into the hillside, creating a cascading series of emerald-green terraces that ripple across the landscape.

During the growing season, the terraces are lush and vibrant, reflecting sunlight off the water-filled paddies.

The views are particularly breathtaking at sunrise and sunset, with the silhouette of Mount Agung adding dramatic depth to the horizon.
