Indonesia - Bali - Besakih Temple

Two days in Ubud was really good and relaxing surrounded by lot of paintings and handy crafts. But the journey must go on. From Ubud we droved up and down to Besakih Temple. You have to pay the admission and parking fee on the very front entrance of the complex. In the entrance near to the temple, we were stopped by the group of guide forcing us the take their guide for the price of 25 USD. We declined to pay for that amount and managed to lower the price to Rp. 100,000. The practice of those guide association was really disappointing but in spite of the accident in front of the gate, the visit to this temple was entertaining. A ‘sarong’ must be wear inside the temple. You can be bought or rent ‘sarong’ at the entrance and tourists are not allowed to go inside the temple (praying place).

View from the top of the temple was beautiful especially on that day where the weather was good and sky was not covered by the mist.
