Adventures of Bahu
Bali Part 3- Tanah Lot and Ulun
Danu
The second, Ulun Danu,
is a temple on a lake (Beratan lake) dedicated to the Trimurti (Bramha, Vishnu,
Mahesh). The drive takes you through many villages, and a Luwak coffee centre
is never too far away. The Coffee talk a little later, because the other two
will take your breath away, just for their majestic locations. Sights that are
hard to beat, anywhere in the world. Don’t believe me? See for yourself, and
multiply the Beauty Quotient by ten times..
Wherever you go, the
warm and smiling people are a constant, and some Hindu temple ceremonies are
always in progress or being readied. The traditional sarong has to be worn in
some temples, and we did that too, so as not to miss the tradition! The design
of their temples is very different from what we see in India, and you will find
an open plan with two arms rising heavenwards in most. The carving is also
unique, and statues of Hindu deities abound everywhere but inside the temples.
No main idol as in ours. Gods are everywhere..
Tanah Lot again, in its lovely sea-kissed location, again.
Tried competing with this laughing guy! Lol!
