"Multi-tiered Roofs of Bali The temples in Bali , Indonesia are famous for their multi-tiered thatch roofs. This was taken at Pura Taman Ayun in the village of Mengwi. Visitors are not allowed to enter the temples - we could only view from outside the walls. Thankfully the walls aren't very tall :)"

Beautiful temples, mosques and churches in Southeast Asia - SilverKris

"An ancient royal water temple built in 1634 by the Mengwi kingdom, the grounds combine Balinese and Chinese architectural influences and include multiple multi-tiered shrines with intricately carved walls. The complex is set within a courtyard surrounded by a moat, and a central fountain with nine water jets symbolizes the nine principal gods of Balinese Hinduism. It is commonly visited as part of full-day water-temple tours that include guided commentary on the temples’ history." - SilverKris

7 temples to visit for a different side of Bali - SilverKris

"Set within a broad, elegant moat, this expansive temple complex—whose name means “beautiful garden”—evokes the mythological image of the gods' home floating on a cosmic ocean. Historically the state temple of the Mengwi kingdom, it contains many ceremonial towers that pay homage to Bali’s holiest mountains and symbolises the harmonious circulation of water from the highlands to rice fields and the sea." - SilverKris

Beautiful temple. Entrance fee is 50,000 IDR. At the entrance, they provide a sarong to cover your legs, which is very convenient. The atmosphere is calm and peaceful. Definitely worth visiting.

Taman Ayun Temple feels like stepping into a perfectly balanced postcard of Bali—calm, elegant, and quietly powerful. Surrounded by a wide lotus-filled moat, the temple complex has a serene, almost floating quality that immediately slows you down. The tiered pagoda shrines rise gracefully against the sky, and the manicured gardens add a sense of harmony you don’t always find at busier temples. It’s less chaotic, more contemplative, and ideal for appreciating Balinese architecture and spiritual design without distraction. This isn’t a place you rush through. It’s a place you absorb. If you’re looking for a temple that combines beauty, history, and a peaceful atmosphere, Taman Ayun Temple is absolutely worth the stop.

This is a nice large temple complex with multiple water bodies surrounding it. This temple has lots of apace between each building. Has a nice theatre showcasing the history of the temple via AV. Temple closes at 18:15 although they let us in at 17:45, we were able to go around the whole place. Highly recommended for it’s unique architecture.

Pura Taman Ayun is a Hindu temple, one of the most important in the island of Bali and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It’s characterized by a beautiful and neat garden and it’s surrounded on three sides by water canals that are part of the “Subak”, the local irrigation system for paddies. The visit has been very relaxing although quite short because there is not much to see.

Wow! Such a beautiful temple area. Entrance fee for foreigners is totally fine and definitely worth it. They also provide a Sarong for free. I took probably too many pictures but it’s a real gem. We came here shortly before closing time and hat the area almost for ourselves. If you want to see a beautiful Pura without driving to far out, this is it. Thank you for inviting us to witness some of Bali’s culture. 🙏🏻 Suksma
