Bali : Tanah Lot

Before we reached Tanah Lot, there is a short walking distance to pass through a lot of local handicrafs shops which sell a wide variety of souvenirs such as wood carving, bags, paintings and so on.
Tanah Lot provides the facilities to enjoy the beautiful sunset while seat on the chair.

Tanah Lot owns a magnificent view in particular at the sunset time where the sun slows down to the earth stomach. The temple is built on the rock with 3 acre size and reachable in a few minute by walk, because it is just 20 meters from the coastal lip.
This temple is able to be reached by foot only in particular low tide. The Balinese Hindus are using this moment to enter the temple for praying since they can not access when the seawater is tide.

Batu Bolong Temple is featured by beautiful panorama with the big hole under the temple. Batu Bolong Temple is also built on the rock with the reef bank and own the small temple yard.

There are holy tame snake in black and white color where according to the local society believe that it as a deity property and as the guard of the temple from the bad influence. The locals believe that if one touches the snake while making a wish, the wish will come true. So i give it a try.
