Probably the most famous temple in Uluwatu is the Pura Luhur Uluwatu. Not dissimilar in the power and beauty as displayed by Tanah Lot – although they are not connected historically in any way.
The temple is built on steep cliff and strikes mighty pose against the sky, especially at night.The name, ‘Luhur’ meaning something of divine origin and Uluwatu being broken down into ‘Ulu’ which means lands end and ‘watu’ meaning rock, describes this fantastic piece of architecture perfectly.
On most evenings the Kecak dance is performed and is an old style of Balinese dance involving a group of a hundred and fifty, normally male, performers dancing and chanting ‘cakcakcak’ over and over.
If so inclined whilst staying in Bali you might like to try your hand at water sports. Mountain biking, horse riding and even golf are some of the activities enjoyed by tourists ever day.
Of course if decide to leave the kites surfing to another day you can still head down to the beach where the sand is heavenly.Sunbathe, have cocktails or enjoy a full body massage from a famous Bali spa to relax your body and rest your soul before starting off on your next adventure.
For newly weds Bali must feature on the honeymoon list. Uluwatu is quiet with the choice of private luxury villas. In a paradise such as this romantic moments are waiting to happen making this a dream honeymoon destination. As it is away from the noises and crowds of city lifelay back and imagine there is no one else in the world – it won’t be hard!
Villas in Uluwatu go from budget to top of the range luxury.
