Focus on East Bali

Signature trips

After attending a lively performance of a Barong & Kris dance in Batubulan, you head to the renowned eastward. Besakih, a temple built against the southern slope of sacred Mount Agung, links numerous shrines and smaller temples into a vast religious complex. Often women from all over the island dressed in their finest clothes, carry huge and colourful offerings on their heads to one of the holy shrines. Later you drop by at the Bat Cave Temple in Kusamba. Hundreds of bats hide out in the back of its central shrines. Nobody knows why the bats sought refuge there, but hundreds of them sought refuge there. On the black sandy beach on one side of the road you often see scores of people completing the last ritual of a cremation. Near the temple gate lines of commuters patiently wait to receive a blessing from a priest before continuing their journey. The Kerta Gosa in Klungkung is a 17th century Court of Justice with traditional ceiling paintings. Punishments that await those in the hereafter if they were found guilty, depict gruesome fantasies.
