The Rambut Siwi Temple comes with an unusual history.
When the monk Nirartha visited the spot in the 16th Century and proclaimed it holy, he left something behind – a lock of hair, which was donated to the villagers.
The villagers then built a temple around it and named it Pura Rambut Siwi, which literally means ‘The Temple For Worshipping The Hair’.
Despite its strange past, the Rambut Siwi Temple – one of the largest Hindu temples in Bali – remains a wondrous sight, settled on a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean.
Getting There: The Temple is located about 8km from Perancak Temple, or around 87km from Denpasar. Its entrance costs incurred Rp. 20,000 with guides available for extra.
