Tirta Gangga

The cool spring pools at Tirtagangga is situated some 15 KM northwest of Amlapura, on the way to Singaraja. The spring pools which refer to sacred river of the Hindus are somewhat refreshing.

Just North of Karangasem on the slopes leading up to Mount Agunr is Tirta Gangga, a veritable water playground designed by a prince in the Royal Family of Karangasem as a resting place. The exotic pools and water fountains sustained some damage during the eruptions or Mt. Agung, but the water gardens remain as serene and tempting as ever to the travel weary.

Besides, its has wondrous view of terrace ricefields offering fresh green sights. From here, one may be challenged to walk on a number of treks through the surrounding countryside.
