Goalawah temple, Tenganan village, and bloon langoon snorkling

in April 10' 2011, we had trip to Goalawah temple, Tenganan village and snorkeling to Bloo Langoon.
the cave
Gua Lawah or Bat cave is one of favorite places of interest in Bali and it is located near of hilly bank so it is called reef of Middle hill. This cave is located in Pasinggahan countryside, Dawan sub district, Klungkung Regency, east part of Bali and about 1,5 hours from Denpasar Town. There is a nature cave dwelt by thousands of tail bat located at north side from Jeroan/center of Goa Lawah temple Meanwhile the main road from Klungkung to Amlapura is just in front of the temple. This cave is apposite to the beautiful beach with black sand along the coastal area.Pursuant to the papyrus of Dwi Jendra Tattwa, the Gua Lawah's name is Gua Lelawah, the name which is given by Danghyang Nirartha (a priest overspread the Hindu teaching in Bali) when he stop in this place on his Tirtha Yatra trips. when you enter to this tample you have to used special sheets cloth called 'kamen' to show our respect for God and balinese.
using 'kamen'

Tenganan, northwest of Candidasa, is situated about 5km from the main road. Tenganan is a symmetrically laid out Bali Aga village with a walled homes and unique crafts. Bali Aga was the original inhabitant of Bali, before the arrival of Hindu Javanese. Tenganan retains its ancient pre-Hindu customs through a strong code of non-fraternization with outsiders, further enforced by the protection of its surrounding walls. you can see a Balinese heritage called 'gedong' that used for place of ceremonial and people announcement.
the end of this trips are snorkeling at Bloo langoon. its located besides of Padang Bai harbor and Silayukti temple.Just beyond the temple lies the Blue Lagoon which is actually a small bay, drive or outrigger in our Bloo Lagoon Jukung from Padangbai . The white sand bottom slopes gradually to 22M, has scattered rocks, soft corals and a huge area of Staghorn Coral. The fish life is amazing! There is a large Napoleon Wrasse that lives here, several kinds of unusual reef shark, stonefish, moray and blue ribbon eels, nudibranches, rays, squid and octopus, stargazers and Leaf Scorpionfish in every hue. While the Blue Lagoon is easy diving, used for Open Water Courses and popular with snorkellers, experienced divers and photographers also thoroughly enjoy the site.
