Explore Tirta Empul’s holy springs, then head to Kintamani for Mount Batur & Lake Batur views and lunch. Taste Bali coffee at OKA Agrowisata, and finish at Yana Art watching traditional wood carving.

Start your trip at Tirta Empul Temple, one of Bali's most important holy-water temples. Take a stroll through the peaceful courtyard and discover its spiritual significance in Balinese Hindu tradition. If you'd like, you can take part in the **melukat** purification ritual. This is an authentic local experience where visitors cleanse in the temple's spring-fed pools for renewal and positive energy.

Next, travel north to the cool highlands of Kintamani, famous for its beautiful caldera scenery. From the viewpoint area, you can see the beautiful Mount Batur and the sparkling Lake Batur below. Take your time for photos, fresh mountain air, and a relaxing lunch in a scenic setting, surrounded by nature.

After lunch, go to OKA Agrowisata for a tour of a local plantation. Take a walk through the tropical plants and learn how Bali grows coffee and other crops. Enjoy a guided coffee tasting, where you'll try different flavors and learn about the process of making coffee.

End the day at Yana Art, a local artisan workshop where you can see Bali's rich wood-carving tradition. See impressive handcrafted pieces up close and watch skilled craftsmen transform raw wood into detailed carvings. It's a memorable cultural finish—perfect for finding a meaningful souvenir before heading back.
