Description
Accessibility: As our walking tours take place around historic landmarks, there are aspects of our tours that we are unable to alter. These include uneven temple stairs, steep gradients and patchy sidewalks. Guests should be physically capable of climbing steps and prepared to walk around an urban environment for up to 2 hours. Weather: There will be times where the weather may affect the tour start time. We operate rain or shine but if the conditions are severe, such as an intense downpour, we’ll call you before the start. Consider this part of your Bali adventure! Environmental Commitment: We, at Ubud Story Walks want to do our part and decrease the plastic in Bali’s rivers. Please bring a reusable bottle for water refills. Temple Etiquette: Balinese temples are religious and sacred places. To show respect, both men and women must dress modestly by wearing a sarong that covers the legs below the knee. Guests may bring their own sarong or use one provided.

Itinerary
Pura Penataran Sasih
Wearing traditional sarongs and sashes, we'll enter one of Bali's oldest temples where our small group will get exclusive access to Southeast Asia's largest bronze kettle drum. Here, we'll learn how local myths and legends intertwine with this powerful artifact, known as the Moon of Pejeng.
Pura Pusering Jagat
Our journey continues down the road to one of Bali's six main Kahyangan (directional) temples, believed to be at the island's center. As we explore this sacred temple complex, we'll examine the intricately carved "Pejeng Vessel" and discuss the early spread of Buddhism and Hinduism in Southeast Asia.
Kebo Edan Temple
Temple of the Crazy Buffalo: In this small temple, our group will view the imposing 13th-century Bhairawa statue, recovered from nearby rice fields. Together, we'll discuss theories about its unusual origins and potential connection to Balinese Tantric practices.
Arca Building Archaeological Museum
For our final stop, we'll step back to pre-Hindu Bali. As a group, we'll explore giant sarcophagi in an open courtyard, gaining fascinating insights into ancient Balinese life and customs.
