About this experience
Pura Ulun Danu Beratan is Bali's most beautiful and most photographed lake temple, a 17th-century Hindu-Buddhist complex on the shores of Lake Beratan in Bedugul. The multi-tiered meru shrines appear to float on the lake, particularly when morning mist covers the water. Cool highland temperatures (around 18 to 22°C) and manicured gardens surround the temple complex.
Pura Ulun Danu Beratan is one of Bali’s most iconic and scenic temples, famous for its unique position that looks like it’s floating on Lake Beratan in Bedugul. The significance of Ulun Danu Beratan Temple is deeply tied to harmony between people, nature, and spiritual life. It’s no wonder the temple often shows up on postcards, Rupiah notes, and Bali tourism promos.
