| From lake Bratan
in Bedugul, it will take about 25 minutes toward the northwest to reach
this tranquil lake.
Following the road
toward the west end of Lake Buyan, we will finally see Tamblingan, sister
lake of the former. If we take direction to the right at the junction at
the end of the road, we will arrive in Munduk village, a village rich with
coffee plantations that own a quite well known gamelan gong kebyar music
group.
On the junction however,
we take left turn and continue to follow the quiet road circling the lake
that situated on the left hand side, now the lake is in the east side of
the road.
The road begin to
descend, then we will meet another junction, again take the left turn.
Following the descend toward east, finally the asphalt road stops replaced
by earth surfaced track, cars are not allowed to pass this track. By walking
follow the unpaved track until we arrive on the edge of the water body.
There stood the serene
Ulundanu temple, the temple of the Tamblingan. In the quiet surrounding,
occasionally we hear clearly the voice of birds and other inhabitants of
the forest that surrounding the water. |
