Our first spiritual destination of the day is the mystical Kehen Temple in Bangli. This incredibly ancient sanctuary is widely renowned for its unique terraced structure and the magnificent Candi Kurung stone gateway that guards the entrance. Historically recognized as the "Temple of Fire," this sacred site features a massive, centuries-old banyan tree with a built-in watchtower nestled in its branches. Walking through the quiet courtyards allows you to admire the beautifully preserved stone carvings and authentic ancient relics that reflect the early roots of Balinese spiritual architecture.
Next, we journey to the grand slopes of Mount Agung to visit the world-famous Besakih Temple, celebrated as the largest, holiest, and primary "Mother Temple" of all temples in Bali. We will walk around this sprawling complex to take in the breathtaking beauty, towering multi-tiered shrines, and profound sacredness that defines the pinnacle of Balinese worship. After exploring Besakih, we will proceed to a scenic local restaurant to relax and enjoy a delicious buffet lunch filled with authentic Indonesian food, providing a perfect break to recharge before our afternoon destinations.
Following lunch, our Bali Temple Tour continues to the legendary Tirta Empul Temple in Tampaksiring. This beautiful heritage site is famous for its bubbling natural mountain springs, which flow into large stone pools. For over a thousand years, locals have gathered here to perform traditional rituals to purify themselves, their minds, and their souls. While our standard tour is tailored for sightseeing and photography, you can witness the deep devotion of the local people as they move through the crystal-clear holy waters.
Our final stop before heading home is the spectacular Gunung Kawi Temple, an archaeological marvel hidden inside a lush river valley. Here, you will be amazed by the towering, ancient shrines carved directly into the sheer stone cliff faces. These dramatic monuments originally served as the sacred memorial tombs for ancient Balinese kings and royalty from the Udayana Dynasty.

All you need to know about of Bali Temple Tour
Kehen Temple
The very first historical site we will visit during the Bali Temple Tour is the mystical Kehen Temple, famously known as the ancient Temple of Fire. Located in the Bangli Regency, this sacred Hindu sanctuary derives its name from "Hyang Api," which translates to the God of Fire. The complex boasts immense structural uniqueness, starting with its highly strategic hillside location. Unlike typical sanctuaries that only feature an open Candi Bentar split gate at the main road level, Kehen Temple is uniquely celebrated for its monumental Candi Kurung stone gateway. This massive, covered archway is adorned with intricate traditional Balinese carvings and forms a towering backdrop that serves as a fantastic, highly Instagrammable photo opportunity for travelers.
Besakih Temple
The second spiritual landmark we will visit during the Bali Temple Tour is the majestic Besakih Temple, universally revered as the "Mother Temple" of Bali. Locally called Pura Besakih, this sprawling complex is the biggest Hindu temple on the entire island. Perched over 900 meters high on the southwest slopes of Mount Agung—the highest and holiest active volcano in Bali—the temple offers a deeply spiritual atmosphere. Because the local people believe Mount Agung is the sacred home of the gods, Besakih Temple serves as the primary place of worship for all Balinese Hindus. Dating back to prehistoric times, this ancient Hindu temple has been a center of holy rituals for over a thousand years. Beyond its massive historical and religious importance, the complex offers some of the most breathtaking views on the island.
Tirta Empul Temple
The third spiritual destination we will visit during the Bali Temple Tour is the legendary Tirta Empul Temple, famously known as the holy spring temple of Bali. Beautifully built around a bubbling natural spring in the Tampaksiring region, this sacred site has been a beacon of spiritual healing for centuries. Historic inscriptions reveal that the construction of Tirta Empul Temple dates back to 960 AD, built under the reign of King Chandrabhaya Singha Warmadewa. For more than a thousand years, Balinese worshippers have been drawn to these waters, which ancient Hindu mythology says were pierced into the earth by the God Indra to create a spring with powerful curative properties. This sacred water tradition continues almost completely unchanged at the temple today.
Gunung Kawi Temple
The fourth and final spiritual landmark we will visit during the Bali Temple Tour is the magnificent Gunung Kawi Temple, home to a spectacular collection of ancient cliff-face candi shrines. Often described as Bali's own "Valley of the Kings," this legendary archaeological treasure is hidden deep inside a lush river valley in Tampaksiring, beautifully surrounded by emerald green rice terraces and tropical jungle landscapes. Gunung Kawi Temple features a collection of ten towering candi reliefs, which were meticulously hand-hewn directly into the sheer stone valley walls on both sides of the sacred Pakerisan River. These massive rock-cut monuments were created to mimic the majestic fronts of traditional temples and were designed to serve as eternal residences for the souls of ancient royalty.
