About this experience
This journey will take you to the mysterious corners of northern Bali and its best photo locations. In one day, you will immerse yourself in the mystical atmosphere, stroll among the rice terraces, see the floating temple of Ulun Danu above the lake, and refresh yourself under the streams of the Banyumala waterfall. And then you will take stunning photos in the characteristic settings of Bali - on the swings of Wanagiri Hidden Hills and by the giant gates of Handara Gate.
What to expect
Walk through the Jatiluwih Rice Terraces
If you haven't been to the rice terraces, you haven't seen Bali! Therefore, the first stop of our journey will be the Jatiluwih terraces, one of the island's most iconic landmarks, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The stunning local landscapes against the backdrop of the mysterious Mount Batukaru, shrouded in mist, will inspire you to take dozens of wonderful photos. After the walk, we will stop for a cup of invigorating coffee at a cafe with an incredible view of the emerald cascades of rice terraces.
Pura Ulun Danu - Temple by the Sacred Lake
In the water temple of Pura Ulun Danu, which seems to float above the mirrored surface of Lake Bratan, you will experience the color and magic of Balinese culture, learn about the peculiarities of the local religion, and examine in detail the temple architecture that creates a sense of weightlessness. And, of course, you will be enchanted by the mountain landscapes framing the sacred lake.
Fantastic Angles of Bali
In addition to the authentic temples and iconic landmarks of Bali, you will discover several characteristic, photogenic places on the island.
- After lunch, we will head to the specially equipped viewing platform of Wanagiri Hidden Hills. The main highlight of this place is swings and woven hammocks over the lake, which will be the best props for atmospheric Balinese photos.
- At the Banyumala Waterfall (Banyumala Twin Waterfalls), you can relax, watching the descending streams of water, and if desired, immerse yourself in the cool water to relieve fatigue.
- And on the way back, you will find yourself at one of Bali's most popular photo locations - the giant gates of the village Gapura Bali Handara Kosaido, to capture shots that have long been a Balinese must-have.
