Uluwatu

Tanah Lot Temple, one of Bali’s most iconic landmarks, is famous for its stunning location perched on a rocky outcrop in the Indian Ocean. The temple is dedicated to the sea gods and offers a picturesque setting. The Hindu temple is known for its unique position, surrounded by the sea, and is accessible by foot during low tide, while at high tide it appears isolated in the water. Visitors can explore the temple and watch traditional Balinese rituals and offerings being made by local priests. A unique feature of Tanah Lot is the Holy God Snake, found in a cave at the base of the temple. This sacred sea snake is believed to be a guardian of the temple, offering protection and good fortune. Locals hold the snake in high regard as a divine safeguard for the temple and its surroundings. Visitors can observe the snake, but are encouraged to treat it with respect, as it is considered sacred in Balinese culture. Typically, visitors spend about 1 to 1.5 hours at Tanah Lot, taking in the views, learning about its cultural significance, and enjoying the surrounding temple grounds.
