Batur Temple or commonly called Ulun Danu Temple is situated at 900 meters above level of Kalanganyar Batur village Kintamani District on the eastern side of the main road leading to Denpasar or Singaraja via Bangli.
The temple faced west ward where Mount Batur and remains of its solidified black lavas serve as backdrop and Lake Batur stretches far down the slope, enhanced the beauty of nature around the temple.
Jukung - the Balinese native outrigger sailboat (prahu). Often built entirely without metal or nails, a jukung shows a high level of traditional technology.
April 10 – 25, 2006
Desa Adat Batur Kecamatan Kintamani
Pura Ulun Danu Batur’s odalan is on full moon April 12, 2006 (Purnama Kedasa); it uses lunar calendar instead Wuku (cycle of 210 days). The ceremony has already started on April 10, 2006 and will end April 25. There are almost every where in Bali odalan on this auspicious day including Bhatara Turun Kabeh in Mother Temple Besakih.
If you drive to Singaraja through Batur/Kintamani then you, for sure, find traffic jam. It is a pack; people all over Bali come to pray. It is not only prayer but also villages near by Batur also take a part – Sebatu, Beyunggede and Buahan.
Balinese culture is always interacting with the surrounding environment. Their way of thinking, in order to fulfill the necessities ofthe physical and spiritual aspects of life, is based on the integration of intuitive intellect with the potential in their immediate environment. For example, if we look at their architecture, the habitat of the population living in the mountain ranges of Kintamani will not be the same as the houses of the Balinese living in the flatlands of Gianyar, or the coastal area of Kuta, even if the climate and weather is not drastically different.
Sirap (shingle) of bamboo is more often used as material for the roofs of buildings in the mountainous areas of Kintamani because, aside from the fact that it functions as a shield from the cold air, there are many bamboo bushes to be found around Kintamani. On the other hand, in lowland and coastal areas, people choose alang-alang (dry grasses) for their roofing, because this is the easiest material to be found in their surrounding environment.
Dear Friends,
The impact of bomb tragedy in Kuta and number of the nature tragedy in Indonesia has been felt by tourist industry. The slow down of tourism is affecting other economies, which, in Bali specifically, are mainly related with tourism. Almost every segment and layers of Bali’s society,including the goverment and big business,is making effort to “revive” the island’s economy through varieties of mean.
We realized that it is important for the people who live in Bali to get their life back to normal again, the reason for us to organize a Charity dinner,on program Hari Ibu Kartini ( Indonesian women hero ) for education On 21 April and The Earth Day on 22 April 2006. This is away for us to gather all layers of community to interact with each other.and to give people information about Environmental Education.
