About Ulun Danu Beratan Temple
Perched on the shores of Lake Beratan in the cool highlands of Bedugul, Ulun Danu Beratan is one of Bali's most photographed temples. Its multi-tiered meru towers appear to float on the water, framed by misty mountains, making it a favorite subject for photographers, especially in the calm morning light.
