WATER PURIFICATION – MELUKAT

For a traditional Balinese water purification ceremony (melukat), visit sacred spring temples like Pura Tirta Empul in Tampaksiring, Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu in Tegallalang, Pura Mengening, or the Taman Beji Griya Waterfall. These sites use natural holy springs for spiritual and mental cleansing. To partake in this ritual, it is recommended to take a local guide with you to give you a cultural spiritual experience.
