Highlights
-
Taman Ayun Temple - Bali Taman Ayun Temple is situated in Mengwi Village of Badung District, around 18 km to the west of Denpasar. It is a very beautiful temple, as the name tells (Taman Ayun means temple in a beautiful garden). In addition to its beauty, Taman Ayun Temple is also considered to have historical values, which makes the regional government of Bali suggests the UNESCO in 2002 that this temple is included in World Heritage List.
Taman Ayun Temple is a Mother Temple (Paibon) to Mengwi Kingdom. This temple was built by Mengwi King, I Gusti Agung Putu, in the Javanese year of 1556 (1634 AD). Initially, I Gusti Agung Putu built a temple to the north of Mengwi village to the worship of his ancestors. The temple was named Genter Park. When Mengwi grew into a big kingdom, I Gusti Agung Putu moved Genter Park eastward and expand the compound. The expanded temple was officially declared Taman Ayun Temple on Kliwon Tuesday - Medangsia the fourth month in the Javanese year of 1556. Until today, each Kliwon Tuesday of wuku Medangsia in Javanese calendar (Saka), a piodalan (ceremony) is held in this temple to celebrate the temple’s anniversary.

Lovely sunset and tour - If you are in Bali, this tour is a must. You will see a lot in this afternoon tour: Taman Ayun temple, coffee plantation and sunset at Tanah Lot. I enjoyed all places, and I had a really good time with Augustino - the driver and guide. Taman Ayun was very spiritual as there were not too many people there, it is a beautiful temple. The visit at coffee plantation included coffee/tea tasting - interesting to understand the production of luwak coffee. At last - the highlight of the day - sunset at Tanah lot - magic place. Augustino was very nice and helpful, definitely a tour to be recommended.

Beautiful Bali Temples - Great 3 hour tour to see two beautiful temples in Bali. Make sure to time the tanah lot correctly as the tide will rise, making it very hard to cross over to the temple. Merit was our driver and did a great job navigating. He escorted us to the temples and took our pictures all over. Would recommend!

Great Half Day Tour - Our driver Nik picked us up from our hotel promptly. His van was clean and he was a safe and courteous driver. Nik was very knowledgeable and professional. It was a cloudy evening so we didn't get the spectacular sunset at Tanah lot but, it was beautiful nonetheless. I highly recommend this tour. Ask for Nik.

Half Day Tour - The Half Day Tour to Taman Ayun Temple and Tanah Lot Temple along with Upadani Bali Tour was very enjoyable. Our driver (Agus) has a lot of experience, he is very welcoming, kind and friendly
Taman Ayun Temple is a green place, a sacred place for Hindus in Mengwi Bali
At Tanah Lot Temple we saw a beautiful sunset, many tourists come there. The temple is located in the middle of the sea, if the tide we cannot directly to the temple,if
at low tide we can straight to the temple, we also saw sacred snakes around the temple in a cave by the beach
We are very happy on the island of Bali
