Twin lake

Lake Buyan and Lake Tamblingan are like two identical lakes having a very fascinating attraction. These lakes are still so natural that there are no speedboats around. Local people use small boats called “pedahu” for fishing. Surrounded by green mountains, fresh air atmosphere provide a calm and comfortable ambience. This lake is ideal for water recreation such as canoeing and fishing. For those who love nature and recreation, this is the place.
The facilities here are well maintained. There are car parking by the lake, boat rentals for fishing or just recreation, and accommodation facilities. For more, there are lots of apes you can find not far from the lake. By years, the population of the apes is increasing, adding attractiveness of this region.

located 21 km south of Singaraja City, on the outskirts of Denpasar-Singaraja road. Located at a high land, approximately 1000 m above sea level, Lake Buyan and Lake Tamblingan are quite cool at night.

The Pura Meduwe Karang is a Hindu temple dedicated to the male counterpart of the rice goddess Dewi Sri. The name of the temple means "to whom the earth belongs", and the local people come here to beg for a rich harvest in the surrounding coffee, maize, fruit and vegetable plantations. The temple consists of three parts. In the first courtyard (jaba) are three platforms, with 13 figures in the lowest row, ten in the middle row and 13 in the rear row.

Then the child is hoped to be aware of who she/he actually is with help from his/her four siblings. If she/he doesn’t care with these siblings, the they w...
