Describing a Place

Tanah Lot

Tanah Lot is one of the tourist attractions in Bali. It is a popular tourist and cultural icon of photograpy. Tanah lot is located 20 km away from Denpasar. We can go there by car or motorcycle. On the way to Tanah Lot, we can find a lot of hotels and hostels.

The Tanah Lot temple sits on a large rock. It is unique because  you can only visit the temple during the low tide. When the high tide comes, the temple will be under water. Every 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Tanah Lot becomes very crowded, because some Hindu people worship Dewa Baruna in the temple.

Most tourists who visit Tanah Lot want to enjoy the beautiful sunset and take pictures of it. The sun usually sets  at around 6 o'clock. During that moment the sky automatically turns into orange colour. Don't miss this wonderful scenery!

We can also enjoy the beach in Tanah Lot. It is very beautiful, but there are a lot of rocks, so when we visit the beach we must walk carefully. The beach looks more beautiful in the afternoon than at night, especially on a sunny day because the water looks blue and clear. How instagrammable!

We don't need to worry when we want to buy some food or drink, because there are a lot of traders there. The traders also sell some nice souvenirs, such as statues, wood crafts, balinese sarongs, and key holders. We can buy them for our friends and relatives.
