Description

Begin your journey by visiting a traditional Balinese house that still maintains its original structure and layout according to the Asta Kosala-Kosali philosophy. See old structures like angkul-angkul, bale dauh, bale dangin, jeroan, and the traditional kitchen. Learn about the function of each building in the compound and hear stories about the life of Balinese families in the past. Next, join a workshop to make canang sari, small offerings used in Balinese spiritual activities. Guided by local women, learn the philosophy behind each element: janur, flowers, porosan, and incense. Master the technique of arranging canang sari with your own hands and create a set of offerings to be used in the melukat ritual. After making your offerings, head to a sacred water temple to perform the melukat ritual—a purification process believed to cleanse the mind, heart, and negative energy. Receive a sarong and sash as ritual attire, get step-by-step guidance from a local guide, and cleanse yourself under the holy water flowing from natural springs. End your tour with a visit to the Tegalalang Rice Terrace, one of the most famous views in the world. Enjoy the expanse of green terraced rice fields, fresh rural air, and a calming atmosphere. Take the best photos with a dramatic terraced backdrop and relax while enjoying coffee or young coconut (optional).
