Ubud has too many gods, each with their own story
🔵 Goa Gajah, the only cave temple in Bali. The Goa Gajah complex includes three parts: the cave itself, the holy spring pool, and the remnants of Buddhist architecture. The holy spring pool is an Indian-style open-air bath that has dried up, with three statues of maidens holding water pots on each side, which were the original water outlets.
🔵 The light inside the Elephant Cave is very dim, and the air is not very good, a bit stuffy, so we went in for a look and came out quickly. It is best to bring a flashlight when entering the cave.
🔵 Outside the cave, there are three open-air bathing pools, as well as temples, stone carvings, and pavilions. The whole area is quite large, and you can stroll around for a while. I think it looks even better as you go further inside.
🔵 Warm tips: Regardless of gender, you cannot wear shorts or short skirts here, so free sarongs are provided at the entrance. Everyone must wrap them around their waist when entering.
Must visit spot when in Bali, it’s a beautiful sacral place to spend with ❤️
There is no elephant in Bali, and there are many different theories about the origin of the name of the elephant cave. Some people said that the archaeologists originally wanted to find the trace of the elephant through this cave, so they called it the elephant cave. Very shaken, worth a visit!
After entering, he will sprinkle water on people. The chartered driver is a local young man, very religious wish, and then receive blessings. There is a free sari at the entrance, no need to buy, through the crowd that wants to sell your sari, bravely go inside.
This is one of the very good places, I highly recommend it to everyone to play together
Pleasant scenery, beautiful environment, good air quality
great great great
The elephant cave is relatively small, pay attention to respect local customs, need to be surrounded by a gauze cage or belt. Xiangcat exports many small shops selling accessories, like the Ubud market, they will tell you in substandard Chinese: "one dollar, cheap~" Children's shoes like can buy back to remember, because "one dollar, cheap~" O (∩ _ ∩)O
On the way to Shengquan Temple, if you wear a skirt before entering, it will be tied up for free. It is not big inside, only a few foreign tourists can be seen. Compared with Shengquan Temple, there are many tourists everywhere. Shops outside the door are bold in bargaining. It is much cheaper than Shengquan Temple, and it is cheaper than a shop in downtown area.
