The Tourist Attractions You Will Visit During the East Bali Tour
Lempuyang Temple
Lempuyang Temple is one of Bali’s important Hindu temples, located on the slopes of Mount Lempuyang in Karangasem, eastern Bali. Also known as Pura Penataran Agung Lempuyang, the temple is famous for its traditional split gate, often called the “Gates of Heaven,” which frames views of Mount Agung on clear days. The temple is part of the larger Lempuyang temple complex and is considered one of Bali’s directional temples (Sad Kahyangan Jagad). Visitors can experience the temple’s spiritual atmosphere, traditional Balinese architecture, and panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and countryside.
Tirta Gangga Water Palace
Tirta Gangga is a former royal water palace in Karangasem, eastern Bali, known for its beautiful gardens, stone sculptures, fountains, and ornamental ponds. Built in 1946 by the last King of Karangasem, Anak Agung Anglurah Ketut Karangasem, the complex combines Balinese architectural traditions with influences from Chinese and European design. Its name means “Water from the Ganges,” reflecting the sacred importance of water in Balinese Hindu culture. Visitors can explore the landscaped grounds, walk across stepping stones above the ponds, and see ornamental fish in the palace’s clear spring-fed pools.
Goa Lawah Temple
Goa Lawah Temple is an important Balinese Hindu temple in Klungkung Regency, eastern Bali, famous for its cave inhabited by large numbers of bats. The temple is believed to have been established in the 11th century by the Hindu priest Mpu Kuturan and is regarded as one of Bali’s important directional temples. Its name, Goa Lawah, means “Bat Cave,” reflecting the distinctive natural feature at the heart of the temple complex. Located near the coast, the site combines religious significance, traditional Balinese architecture, and a unique natural environment, making it an interesting cultural stop along Bali’s eastern route.
Kerta Gosa
Kerta Gosa is a historic royal court complex in Klungkung, Bali, known for its traditional Balinese architecture and distinctive ceiling paintings. Built in the early 18th century during the Klungkung Kingdom, the complex was historically used by the royal court for meetings and judicial proceedings. Its famous Kerta Gosa pavilion features detailed paintings depicting stories from Hindu epics and traditional Balinese concepts of justice, morality, and the afterlife. Today, Kerta Gosa is an important cultural and historical attraction where visitors can learn about Bali’s royal heritage and traditional art.
