Explore these Immense Spiritual Sites in Bali Bali is an enchanting Indonesian island nicknamed as the Island of a Thousand Temples and the Island of the Gods; there is quite a prominent spiritual essence about Bali due to its ancient temples, associated myths and legends, local traditions and ceremonies with sacred rituals. Brightsun Travel offers cheap tickets to Denpasar Bali from UK, taking you to the heart of this magical island. We have put together a list of Bali’s most sacred sites that allow you to embark on the ultimate spiritual journey… Mount Agung There are four primary volcanic mountains that divide Bali into north and south, and each of them are considered as sacred homes of the gods. Of these, Mount Agung is the largest and most holy mountain, considered to be the home of the great Mahadeva god with a few religious temples set on its slopes. (Please note that Mount Agung is an active volcano, so ensure you research current activity if you plan to visit). Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary Ubud’s Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary is set in the Padangtegal village, and locals view the forest as an important spiritual centre. There are over 115 tree species to be found here amongst tropical jungle, some of which are considered holy, and therefore used in a number of spiritual Balinese practices. There are also three sacred temples within the sanctuary, as well as hundreds of long-tailed macaques and a general peaceful ambience, allowing you to harmonize with nature and embrace spirituality. Lempuyang Luhur Temple Lempuyang Luhur Temple is a series of temples set on the slopes of Mount Lempuyang, one of Bali’s four sacred mountains. The complex is considered as one of the most holy sites in Bali that’s renowned for its famous ‘Gate of Heaven’ landmark, and if you brave the climb of over 1,700 steps to reach the highest temple, you’ll be treated to breath-taking mountainous views in a serene place of respite, and blessed with holy water from the temple priest. Trunyan Village Set in a remote location at the base of one of Bali’s sacred mountains, Trunyan Village inhabits a community of people who live traditional lives which significantly differ from the rest of the island. The ancient Balinese village is renowned for its death ritual, where deceased bodies are left to decompose under a sacred banyan tree that is said to emit a strong fragrance, neutralising any odours. This is a chilling spot to witness, but a true once-in-a-life-time experience. Tirta Empul Temple This significant temple complex is set in Manukaya village, and is best known for its purification pools that are fed by a holy mountain spring. The waters of this spring are said to have spiritual healing powers, therefore visited by pilgrims of all over the word who want to bathe in the water and purify themselves. Tirta Empul Temple is a national cultural heritage site dating back to 960 AD, and the temples here feature stunning ancient architecture.
