Indonesia — Bali; Pura Gunung Kawi and Tampaksiring


Pura Gunung Kawi — A World Heritage Site

About an hour north of Benoa Cruise Port lies an acheological site called Gunung Kawi Temple. It’s also known by another name — The Valley of The Balinese King — and it dates back to the 11th century. To get to this World Heritage site you’ll travel to the village of Tampaksiring:

I can show you however the lushness that abounds in this area, including terraced rice paddies and jungle:
