Bedugul is located at 48 kilometres north of the city of Denpasar, about 2,5 hours driving from Ngurah Rai International Airport (I could make it faster with <a title=\"Bali Web Developer &amp; Photography\" href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\" target=\"_blank\">Bart<\/a> as the speedy gonzales driver:p). Other nearby lakes are Lake Buyan, and Lake Tamblingan. Bedugul enjoys a mild mountain weather due to its location at an altitude of about 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) above the sea level.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Major sites in Bedugul are the Pura Ulun Danu water temple and the Bedugul Botanical Gardens. (source : http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bedugul). Ulun Danu Temple is a Balinese Hindu Temple set in the lakeside of Beratan and as an icon of the tourist destination in Bali. But for me it is like a floating temple on a lake &#8211; Beratan Lake! There is this constant fog layering the atmosphere when you enter the lake area..so mysterious. To get to the temple you really have to watch for the park announcement updating the situation in allowing you to go ahead crossing the lake or not.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Ulun-Danu-Temple.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1002 aligncenter\" title=\"Ulun-Danu-Temple\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Ulun-Danu-Temple.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Ulun-Danu-Temple.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Ulun-Danu-Temple-247x300.jpg 247w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I found this cool wooden deck and just had to stop for a quick pose before continuing exploring the temple and the lake area then move to Botanical Garden which is located only 10 minutes from Bedugul mountain lake resort.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/100_00681.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1004\" title=\"100_0068\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/100_00681.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/100_00681.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/100_00681-300x188.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>EKA KARYA BALI BOTANIC GARDEN<\/strong> <strong>&#8211; BEDUGUL<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Botanical Garden, opened in 1959 under the name Eka Karya.
