While the gorgeous beaches and buzzing night markets are a must in Bali, there are a couple of other surprises waiting beyond the usual tourist spots. Ready to see Bali differently? Here’s where to start.
- Explore an abandoned temple
Bali is home to many abandoned temples, but one of the most famous examples is Pura Luhur Batukaru. Built during the 11th century, the temple is set among the lush jungle landscape of Tabanan regency and is definitely worth visiting if you have time to spare during your trip.
- Gili Meno Turtle Sanctuary
Located off the coast of Lombok in Gili Meno Island, this turtle sanctuary has become a popular spot for travellers looking for something different to do in Bali. Here you can take part in turtle conservation efforts or just observe these endangered creatures from afar while learning more about their plight and how we can help protect them from extinction.
- Taman Ujung Water Palace
This historic site located near Amlapura was once used as a summer palace by Karangasem dynasty rulers but has since been converted into an attraction with its own museum complex and gardens filled with exotic plants and flowers. Take some time out during your holiday to explore this beautiful location, which offers stunning views across the surrounding area.
