Panglipuran, the Cleanest Village in Bali

Named the third Cleanest Village in the World by the Green Destination Foundation, Panglipuran Village is a perfect destination for those of you who seek comfort and fresh air in Bali. According to legend, this village has existed for 700 years, since the Bangli Kingdom.

The village is rich in preserved customs and culture. We can see the concept of Tri Mandala in its spatial arrangement. For those of you who don't know, Tri Mandala is the division of three zones of land based on their sacred value. The most sacred place is in the north, and the least sacred is in the south. It's unique and interesting, right? So, the north is considered as the meeting place of the gods. It's a sacred place, you know.

If you look around, the dwellings here are still very traditional. The patterns are also uniform. There is no gap, only harmony. We won't find scattered trash here. Every few meters, you'll find a trash bin, and the people here are very kind, friendly, and always smiling. When you visit here, don't forget to follow the applicable rules.
