Bali's Eastern Bali
Eastern Bali
What exactly makes Eastern Bali the quintessential Bali experience? Is it the towering 3142m high volcano, Gunung Agung, which rises from its center, or possibly the vibrant green of the rice terraces that line its countryside? Could it be the turquoise blue that caresses its shores, or the captivating scenes that lie beneath? Maybe it is decadent array of ornate temples, or just the mysterious legends that orbit its sacred sites. Or quite possibly, it is the pungent concoction of all these ingredients, garnished with a welcoming charm unique to this Balinese landscape and its people, that makes Eastern Bali one of the most captivating settings in the country.
Explore the sacred wonder of Besakih, spread across the slopes of Ganung Agung, or walk the streets of Klungkung, where the ancient Kertagosa houses the fragile wayang paintings from days gone past. Trek through the holy cave of Goa Lawah, where thousands of bats guard the temple courtyard, or dive deep below in Pandangbai, where a vibrant spectrum of tropical fish color the hard and soft coral reefs thriving just beneath the surface.
