Melukat ceremony at Mengening temple - The Melukat purification ceremony was a beautiful experience. Our guide Ketut was really informative and knowledgeable with perfect English, explaining each step of the purification and happy to spend time answering questions. Ketut took some great pictures for us that we will treasure. Ketut also tailored a trip for us that day too and we went to see a nearby coffee plantation, rice terrace and the happy swing in Bali - all highly recommended.

Amazing temple - The temple is beautiful, smaller than Tirta empul and more intimate. It is not very busy and you can enjoy the nature and beauty of the site. They have a very nice pond and everything is very well maintained. I would certainly repeat.

Best way to start your trip - I led 2 retreats outside of Ubud and our guide brought us here as our first excursion to experience a traditional water ceremony. The priests and staff not only made us feel welcome, but took us through the experience with such honor and care. The grounds were pristine. For many of us, it was the highlight of our Bali experience

Not touristy, 100% recommend - Fantastic experience. I Chose to visit Mengening Temple Instead of Pura tira empul for the cleansing ceremony as it is Not Touristy at all. My Guide was Ketut. He is a local and patiently answered all of my curious questions about the Temple & Religion at Bali. He also guided me through the ceremony very well. Ketut also very kindly Drove me back to ubud as i do Not have a Scooter. I can 100% recommend going there and getting guided by Ketut!

Amazing experience - Visiting the temple was a deeply spiritual experience, made memorable by my guide Agung. He shared the temple’s history, the role of water in Balinese culture, and insights into Hindu traditions. His patient, step-by-step guidance through the cleansing ritual made it both calming and transformative. Agung's warmth and knowledge created a connection to Bali’s spirituality and culture.

unique and deep experience ❤️ - a unique and deep experience, yet another insider tip away from mass tourism. We were accompanied by Agung, who gave us a deep insight into Balinese spirituality. During the ceremony Agung accompanied us very sensitively. This experience is a highlight of our Bali trip, also the encounter and accompaniment with Agung 🙏🏻💝
