Gate of Heaven Temple - Water Palace - Asah Hill - Virgin Beach Private Tour

Nicknamed “The Gateway to Heaven” this mountain temple has become the top priority for everyone who’s on a mission to capture the most Instagrammable spots in Bali. Located 600 meters above sea level at the hillside slope of Mount Lempuyang in east Bali, the “Gateway” itself offers a backdrop of Mount Agung and will get you a feeling of reaching out to sky to catch a glimpse of cloud while breathing cold and humid air (please remember to cover your shoulder).

Literally means “Blessed Water of Ganges,” this water palace was built and designed by Anak Agung Anglurah Ketut Karangasem, the last ruling King of Karangasem who happened to be a prominent canal engineer in 1948. Tirta Gangga was created to improve the holiness of the spring water and to serve as a place for comtemplation, rest and joy for everyone. The 1.2-hectare palace comprises mainly of ponds, plants and sculptures mixing Balinese and Chinese style. The stepping stone and the fountain are the main spectacle but you can swim in the pond (which is regarded as holy) and feed the fish for great picture and relaxation.

This is a sister palace to Tirta Gangga which is also built by order the last King of Karangasem and separated just by a few kilometers. Taman Soekasada Ujung offers everyone a serene and quiet atmosphere where you can stroll around the expanse or take Instagenic picture among the flowers, royal buildings and marble ruins. Spiritually speaking, this water palace was built nearby the shore to redistribute the solar energy drawn by the ocean towards terrestrial life.

A newly found attraction located on a hill between Candidasa and Tirta Gangga that offers everyone an electric charm of the Bali Sea. This hidden gem will allow you to see wide open ocean with deep blue color right at midday.

There’s a reason why this beach is called “Virgin” or “White Sand” as people described. Other similar excursions in Bali (even those in the close proximity) just aren’t as quiet as this one. Down the beach you will be able to snap views of banana forests, Mount Agung and of course the pristine water of eastern Bali sea. The local restaurants (warungs as we call it) will give you free rent of sunbed if you buy their cheap menus.
