Here’s how to max out one epic

Here’s how to max out one epic day in Bali, cruising from Kuta to the island’s most legendary temples and lush mountain views 🌴✨

Top Spots to Visit:
1. The Heaven Garden Lempuyang (JJ5J+7HG, Jl. Pura Telaga Mas Lempuyang, Tri Buana, Karangasem) – Open 06:30-18:00. Start your trip early and make the hike to this photogenic spot for that iconic dragon sculpture perched high above Bali’s tropical jungle. The view is next-level and the crisp mountain air is perfection for sunrise chasers.
2. Goa Gajah (Bedulu, Blahbatuh, Gianyar Regency) – Open 08:00-18:00. Known as the Elephant Cave, this ancient temple is wrapped in mystical vibes and cool shade. Wander past centuries-old carvings and don’t miss the meditation pools for a quick refresh.
3. Tirta Gangga Bar and Restaurant (Jl. Abang-Amlapur | Tirta Gangga Water Palace, Karangasem) – Refuel here with fresh Balinese eats right by the water palace. Must-try: Nasi Campur and chill views of koi ponds and fountains.

Pro Tip: Join a one-day tour from Kuta to hit all these spots without hassle. I found local drivers super reliable, and they know the shortcut routes—major time saver!

Getting Around: Private driver tours let you skip the pricey taxis and group tour crowds. Uber-style apps are patchy, so stick with trusted tour operators or pre-book via trip.com for smooth pickup and drop-off.

Food Rec: Snack on tropical fruits from roadside stands along the way—cheap, juicy, and hydrating!

Bali Hacks: Bring cash for entrance fees, wear light clothes (temples require knees/shoulders covered), and pack sunscreen—Bali’s sun hits hard.
