Pura Besakih Tours

Affectionately referred to by many as the "Mother Temple of Bali," the Pura Besakih temple complex is Bali's largest and most important temple. Made up of 23 temples on the slopes of Mount Agung, Pura Besakih unfortunately has a negative reputation due to the many locals who harass travellers visiting on their own, telling them that hiring a guide is mandatory (when it is not). But past that, you're left with one of the most beautiful temple complexes in South East Asia and if you're lucky you might just catch one of the many festivals that seem to happen every other day. www.wheremypassportgoes.com www.facebook.com/wheremypassportgoes

Besakih Temple in Bali, Indonesia. This is the most important, the largest and holiest temple of Hindu religion in Bali.
The Mother Temple of Besakih, or Pura Besakih, in the village of Besakih on the slopes of Mount Agung in eastern Bali, Indonesia, is the most important, the largest and holiest temple of Hindu religion in Bali, and one of a series of Balinese temples. Perched nearly 1000 meters up the side of Gunung Agung, it is an extensive complex of 23 separate but related temples with the largest and most important being Pura Penataran Agung. This is built on six levels, terraced up the slope. This entrance is an imposing Candi Bentar (split gateway), and beyond it the even more impressive Kori Agung is the gateway to the second courtyard. Source: Wikipedia #architecture

I really enjoyed staying at the Swan Paradise with my family. We stayed in the 3 bedroom villa and we absolutely loved it. The AC worked great and the rooms were cleaned up nicely. Staff was excellent! Very friendly and welcoming. They were helpful to our every needs. The amenities were great too. My family loved using the pools. There was a big diving board which was cool.

My friend and I spent ten glorious days and nights in Ubud at Puri Saraswati Dijiwa. We loved our suite and had wonderful sleeps on the comfy beds and quality linen. Every day we enjoyed our pool time and relaxing in the patio area. The hotel staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful! We always felt well taken care of. Massage therapist, Henny, has magic hands! Puri Saraswati Dijiwa is located in the heart of Ubud and it was easy to get around to our activities, restaurants and the markets. The hotel restaurant served us a scrumptious breakfasts every morning and we had many of our suppers there, too. If you’re looking for an authentic Balinese experience and beautiful surroundings, this is your stay!
