About this experience

Nestled near the majestic Mount Batukaru, Pura Siwa is a hidden gem that offers an authentic glimpse into Balinese spirituality. This temple boasts one of the most captivating statues of Lord Shiva and provides a serene atmosphere away from the bustling tourist spots. Visitors often find themselves immersed in local traditions, especially during special occasions like the New Moon celebration. The warmth and kindness of the priest and his son, Rama, create a familial vibe that enhances your experience.
