Enjoy lunch overlooking the Pakerisan River and spend the afternoon in a temple witnessing the extraordinary sound healing session.

At first glance, Ubud’s bustling main street might seem like an unlikely place to uncover traces of “Old Bali,” but hidden gems await those who know where to look. Late in the morning, we proceed to Tampak Siring, to the private house of the Sukarno’s Museum, former curator and the leading expert on the recent world heritage listed Pakerisan river area and its ancient temples and monuments.  His life passion is giving back to the country that he loves and through his look documenting the Balinese culture since 1979. His successor will share his findings to help preserve the temples and monuments for future generations to enjoy. 

Enjoy a delightful included lunch set up within his house, sitting amongst the rice field on a ridge to the sacred river of Pakerisan. 

Nestled amidst the serene landscapes of Bali, Mengening Temple stands as a sanctuary of spiritual rejuvenation and cultural heritage. This temple is an ancient site, a relic from the reign of King Marakata in 1022 AD. Journey inward through a self-purification journey, cleansing body and soul with sacred water while embracing Balinese traditions and nature's tranquility.  

Late in the afternoon, at 17:00 an ancient sound healing session awaits, guiding you into an effortless state of relaxation. The process is as scientific as it is mysterious. It requires nothing but your presence to be fully appreciated, but it must be experienced in order to be understood. Anticipate a magical Sound Healing, it could be your time, so come with an open mind and heart and ‘Expect the Unexpected’.
