 Tanah Lot Bali

Here there are two temples are situated on on a large rock. One sits on a boulder bener2 and the other located on a cliff similar to the Uluwatu Temple. Even on a clear day (the sea is not foggy, sunny is) you can see from here Pura Uluwatu. Pura Tanah Lot temple is part of Sad Goda, ie pretending that the joints of the island of Bali. And Pura Tanah Lot sea temple is a place of worship the gods guard the sea.


 According to legend, this temple was built by a Brahmin who wander from Java. He is a successful Nirantha Sanghyang Balinese people will strengthen confidence and build Sad Hinduism Goda at the 16th century. At that time the ruler of Tanah Lot, Beraben, jealous of him because his followers began to leave and follow Sanghyang Nirantha.
Nirantha Sanghyang Beraben ordered to leave the Tanah Lot. He agreed, and before leaving Tanah Lot with its power to move his stone blocks to the middle of the beach (not into the sea) and built temples there.
He is also changing the shawl into a snake temple guards. Snake is still there today and scientifically snakes include species of sea snakes that have a characteristic flat tail like a fish, striped yellow and black color has a poison 3 times more powerful than cobra snake. End of the legend states that Bendesa Beraben'akhirny 'a follower Sanghyang Nirantha.
North of Tanah Lot Temple there is a temple situated on a cliff that juts into the sea. This cliff temple with the land and shaped like a bridge, arched so. If you go down to the beach between the cliffs of Tanah Lot, then in a particular month you will see my version of the greatest sunset. The red sun ball will be right in the hole cliff. As tired eyes see the world. Unfortunately this view cuman exist in certain months is when the sun sinks biased toward the north.
From the parking lot leading to the temple area you will find many art shops and cafes to eat or just a tavern. Feel free for shopping. Which can Nawar recommended.
