Tirta Empul Temple (couple trip)

Visiting Tirta Empul was an unforgettable spiritual experience. The temple architecture is stunning, and bathing under the stone spouts filled me with calm and clarity. Having a guide made it simple to follow the proper steps, understand each fountain’s meaning, and feel more connected. Even though it gets busy, entering early made a difference.

I was here without a guide and was hoping to hire one at the site. Surprisingly the “guides” were not aggressively promoting themselves and it took some time for me to actually get one. But I’m glad I did, because the guide helped me understand more about the purification and the process, as well as the cultural and historical background of them.

Beautiful place. Lots of great architecture and statues. Unfortunately I may have been in the background of a lot of tiktoks and people doing it for the gram which took away from the beauty.
