Pura Rambut Siwi Travel Guide

Pura Rambut Siwi, or Rambut Siwi Temple, is the main temple in Bali that culture types seek out. It is out of the way to the capital and main beaches but it as a stunning cliff top location and is pretty important.

This high profile temple is one of Bali’s largest Hindu structures and can be found right out in the west of the island in the solitary Negara regency. The good thing is that Pura Rambut Siwi is just off the main Denpasar-Gilimanuk highway, and despite its distance from the hub of Bali’s highlights, it is straightforward enough to get to and is worth a daytrip.

Pura Rambut Siwi’s setting overlooking the Indian Ocean is its main appeal for most visitors. A winding path links the new position with the temple’s old locale down a stone stairway to Pura Penataran. A painting exhibition resides on the old site. There is also a cave near to Pura Rambut Siwi where a small shrine resides along with the duwe temple holy beast.
