Perched on the slopes of Mount Lempuyang in East Bali, Lempuyang Temple, also known as Pura Lempuyang Luhur, is one of Bali’s most iconic spiritual sites. Renowned for its famous “Gates of Heaven,” this temple offers an awe-inspiring view of Mount Agung framed by intricately carved stone gates. The temple is one of the “Sad Kahyangan” or six holy temples of Bali, believed to protect the island from negative energies.
The journey to the temple requires climbing around 1,700 steps, a pilgrimage experience that rewards visitors with not only spiritual connection but also mesmerizing landscapes. Along the way, you’ll pass smaller shrines and sacred statues, each adding to the mystical atmosphere. Many visitors are drawn here for both the serene ambiance and the legendary photo opportunities at the Gates of Heaven, which create a surreal mirror effect when reflected on water.
Visiting early in the day is recommended to avoid crowds and enjoy the cooler air on the climb. Dress respectfully with a sarong, and remember that Lempuyang is an active place of worship, so you may witness locals performing traditional ceremonies. Lempuyang Temple is a unique place to experience Bali’s spiritual culture, dramatic landscapes, and the island’s breathtaking natural beauty, making it an unforgettable destination for any traveler.
