It was a great Saturday morning. We woke up early morning, will have an exciting day where we were plan to explore some of interesting place in our island. It's me and my beautiful wife together with her sisters would like to have a wonderful whole day tour toward Kintamani area. Our main concern is to go to the Hot Spring water on the slopes of Batur volcano. Toya Devasya it's the name of the place, a beautiful setting of hot spring pool beside the lake on the slopes of the volcano.
We leave our house around 8 : 30 am from our plan to start at 07 : 30. It's one hour late , understandable and acceptable. The girls need to prepare themselves longer than man, at least the want to look perfect on the picture. Aaaaah woman!

We
took an unusual drive trek through Badung region. Pass through Sangeh
Monkey forest but we didn't stop there. After few hours drive we arrive
at the border between Badung region and Kintamani district. The are
where the longest bridge, well known as Takad Bangkung Bridge. The
landscape view is amazing. The place surrounding by stunning views of
the valley, mountains in the north and terraces. Unlike another place
where the terraces is for rice farm but here they grow at her than rice
such as corn, long bean as we as Tomato. We were amazed when we arrive
at Belok Village. Along the street we can see colorful terrace with
flowers plantation. It's a
Marigold farm . The village getting more
popular as a new tourist destination. A stunning
Marigold farm.
Marigold flower is one of the main flower for offering tradition in Bali . Beautiful yellow color also well known as 'herbs of the sun ' and a symbol of creativity and passion . In India they use this flowers for in a wedding even , a color of love , peace and charm . A flowers to protect the couple from gossip, sharp tongue . However the flowers also symbol of cruelty and jealousy .
We
decide to stop and taking some picture. As a models is the three
beautiful girls who addicted to make a picture of themselves. And that
place is perfect for them. I am very happy to see them enjoy the moment
we were there.

We continue the drive toward Kintamani, reach the place from back side. Drive through the very steep valley in the northern part of the volcano. It's really amazing landscape view. In Kintamani we drive direct to Bali Hot Spring pool which is located inside the Crater, by the lake on the slopes of the volcano. The Hot Spring that located in one of the resort there. We spend a few hours there, the place setting is stunning but it's to busy. Today is a weekend, where the place full with local visitors .

What a stunning view from the Hot Spring pool |

Guess which one more beautiful |
Lunch we take at Panelokan Kintamani at one of the Indonesian buffet restaurant on the southern rim of the Crater . The food wasn't that good but that's fine for us . We enjoy the view more than the food . We know we should not expect best food at the buffet restaurant .

Enjoy the buffet lunch . We enjoyed the view more than the food |
Last place that we visit is Panglipuran Village. A beautiful setting of Bali ancient village who keeping and maintain the concept of Three Hita Karana. A concept of maintaining a good relationship between human and human, human and environment and human and God. We arrive there on the perfect time. The weather isn't so hot to walk around the village. We took a lot of pictures, spending time to see a whole village area, bamboo forest as well as small souvenir shopping at the village bazaar. The village having one week festival, so beside visiting the village we also walk around the bazaar. It's amazing last stop.
Panglipuran Village also well known as Bali Aga village , Bali Aga is the generation who occupied Bali and bring a Hindu concept . Panglipuran village strictly apply a concept of Three Hita karana . Thus three rules such as
-
Pawongan as a relationship between human and human . The concept how we living in harmony in one community , to take care each other . Parents and the children and the community .
-
Palemahan as a relationship of human and the nature . This concept we can see with how the build the house as a compound , where and how to build .
- Parahyangan as a relationship human and God . This parahyangan we can see with the Temple in each houses as family temple and a main temple in the village where we worship the God .
