📍Tananh Lot - Tabanan

Tanah Lot means “Land [in the] Sea” in the Balinese language.
The temple sits on a large offshore rock which has been shaped continuously over the years by the ocean tide.
At the base of the rocky island, venomous sea snakes are believed to guard the temple from evil spirits and intruders. The temple is purportedly protected by a giant snake, which was created from Nirartha’s selendang (a type of sash) when he established the island.
