Batukaru Temple, also known as Pura Luhur Batukaru, served as the state temple for the kings of Tabanan and is nestled high in the jungled foothills of west Bali. The temple’s serene and spiritual atmosphere is enhanced by a series of tiered shrines, including a prominent 7-roofed structure. The lush, verdant surroundings and the relative absence of tourists contribute to a deeply mystical ambiance. Visitors can explore the temple grounds, experiencing a tranquil and reflective environment that feels far removed from the more frequented tourist spots.
