In their own words: “Apart from this, you may have heard of another temple as well, called Tanah Lot Temple. Tanah Lot is in the more northern part, but it's equally beautiful. So if you have the time, I'd definitely tell you to add Tanah Lot Temple too. Going early in the morning at sunrise, or in the evening at sunset, is ideal.”

In their own words: “Next up, we're going to head to one of my favorite temples in all of Bali, Tana Lot. Now this rock formation is a temple sitting just off the island of Bali. It's famous because this is where a Hindu pilgrimage would take place right here at Pura Tanalot.”
