Pura Tanah Lot

A Temple in the sea

Tanah Lot, in Tabanan Bali regency also known as the “rice bowl of Bali”-is literally taken from the Balinese word ‘lot’, meaning sea, and the Indonesian word ‘tanah’ meaning land. Therefore, at this ‘land next to the sea’ we find uncontrived photo opportunities in a part of Bali relatively unspoiled by the tourist impact of recent years, as well as one of The most photographed icons on the island, pura tanah lot.

Pura means ‘temple’ of which Bali apparently has thousands, but none compare to this majestic land or, should we say, sea mark. It belongs to a group of six temples dotted around the island that local believes all magically protect Bali. At pura Tanah Lot this protection is in response to prayers offered to the deities of the sea, and its colorful temple celebration occurs every six month.
