FAQ
Lempuyang Temple is one of Bali's oldest and most revered Hindu temples, known as one of the "Sad Kahyangan Jagat" (six holiest places of worship). Its popularity stems from its spiritual importance and the iconic "Gates of Heaven" photo opportunity, framed by the majestic Mount Agung. Visitors are drawn to its serene atmosphere and stunning panoramic views, offering both cultural immersion and breathtaking scenery.
Visitors must wear respectful attire to Lempuyang Temple, which means covering shoulders and knees. A sarong (traditional Balinese skirt) and sash are mandatory for both men and women. These are often available for rent at the temple entrance. It is also customary to walk mindfully, avoid pointing with feet, and maintain a quiet demeanor, especially near prayer areas, to show reverence.
Lempuyang Temple is dedicated to Ida Sang Hyang Widi Wasa, the supreme god in Balinese Hinduism, typically manifested as Iswara (East protector). It is part of a complex of seven temples, with the highest point, Pura Lempuyang Luhur, considered one of Bali's most sacred sites. The temple serves as a spiritual pilgrimage for Balinese Hindus, symbolizing balance and harmony between humans and God, nature, and community.
The ideal time to capture the iconic 'Gates of Heaven' photo at Lempuyang Temple is early morning, usually around sunrise. Arriving before 8:00 AM helps avoid the largest crowds and offers clearer views of Mount Agung, which often becomes obscured by clouds later in the day. Be prepared for potential queues for the photo opportunity, even at early hours.

You can walk on the stepping stones over large ponds teeming with koi fish, marvel at the multi-tiered fountains and guardian statues, and explore the beautifully landscaped gardens. Some areas also offer opportunities for wading in the cool, clear spring water. It's a prime location for photography amidst the serene royal water features.
