We begin our journey with Gusti picking us up on the hotel at about 8.45am. We kick off our second day tour with the visit to Batubulan Village to catch the Barong and Kris Dance which was schedule to start at 9.00am. The Barong & Kris Dance is a must watch dance because it presents to the tourists about the Balinese Culture and it was an amazing show as well which combines some elements including jokes, fight etc. It's a must watch show that you should not miss. The entrance fees is IDR 80.000 per person. For Tohpati Village : Bali batik painting processing, Celuk Village : gold and silver smith, Batuan Village : Bali traditional painting of arts & Mas Village : talent wood carver, it depends on individuals whether they like those Balinese cultural handicraft or not. Admission above is FREE. If you love it, then these places mention above would be very interesting to you as besides you get to catch the LIVE processing, you also stand a chance to buy at the stores there with a reasonable price. For ME & Kimmy, we do not like it so it would be a little boring for us.

After lunch, we continue our journey to the Tirta Empul Temple where tourist get a chance to bath with its holy water surrounded the temple. I was amazed with the temple design as well. They said those who bath with the water or wash the water with its hand will get good luck and protection from the gods over there. ME & Kimmy did not bath but we did wash our hands there and hopefully we are protected. We also required to wear a sarong (if you wear skirt or short pants only) before we can enter the temple. This temple is a must visit in Bali. The entrance fees is IDR 6.000 per person. After that, Gusti brought us to enjoy the glimpse of the 2nd highest mountain in Bali which is the Mount Batur. Mount Batur is still active till today. The last erruption was in 1994 which was small. The view from the top of the hill is superb where we can overlook the Mount Batur and the Lake Batur beside it. Admission fees is IDR 5.000 per person. You can enjoy the scenic view there and you would not like to leave. After that we are suppose to stop by at Kayuamba Village to catch the traditional coffee processing and plantation but unfortunately we don't have enough time for this one.

So we proceed straight to Tegalalang Village where you can catch the glimpse of the beautiful rice terrace. When we reach there at about 5.30pm, the sun was shining directly at the rice terrace which makes the rice terrace looks so green and so beautiful. ME & Kimmy was so amazed by the view once again and it looks like a paradise too. Admission fees is FREE. The scenery over there once again makes us so impress and till today, I was so exciting visiting this places. Overall, those places mention above were very recommended to visit except the village and it depends on your interest as well. At night, we have asked Gusti to stop by at Kuta Square because we would like to do some shopping over there. Kuta square is yet another place of heaven for shopping and you should not miss this one.
