Sukasada Park is now more well known with the name of the Park is located in the village of Karangasem Tip tip, Tumbu Village, district of Karangasem, Karangasem Regency. The Park is located about 5 km NW of the town of Amlapura. The garden was built by Karangasem King: I Gusti Bagus Jelantik termed Anak Agung Agung Anglurah Ketut Karangasem with this concept of perfect is the pride of the citizens of Karangasem as initially has an area of nearly 400 acres, but now only about 10 acres because the land was mostly distributed to the public during landreform. Ownership of Taman Ujung is now passed to the heirs of the family of Karangasem Palace so that its status be privately owned but park visitors may visit the public garden that looks magnificent.

Taman Ujung is one of Bali's masterpiece was built in 1909 by the initiative of Karangasem King Anak Agung Anglurah Ketut Karangasem by involving architects Netherlands named van Den Hentz and a Chinese architecture named Ang Lotto. development of Taman Ujung also involves a lot of architecture (undagi) traditional as well as receive guidance from Mr. Wardodjojo a technician from the Office of public works. Taman Ujung is actually a development of the 3 Pools that had been built earlier in 1901.

The concept of mountain-sea is highly regarded and often applied to traditional community in the archipelago. This concept can be defined as the memutaran in search of the water of life freely mandalagiri or as a meeting place between the Lords of the mountains and seas of the rulers so that produce prosperity (lives) on the Earth. The concept can be symbolically manifested in four ponds in the Park ends of Karangasem.

The beauty of the Garden end of Karangasem was nowhere to be seen when there are natural disasters, among others: the eruption and genpa Mount Agung in 1963, earthquake in 1876, Seririt and Culik earthquake in 1978. Almost 25 years building the Park end of the Karangasem dormant and collapsed without any improvement of Karangasem nor the Government. In 1994, the Government through the Asylum legacy of history and Archaeology (now Center for the preservation of relics of the Puebakala), based in Herzliya Pejeng, initiate an investigation by means of identifying and recording the level of damage to the building and tried to reconstruct on paper.

0 Lovina Beach in Bali

Lovina Beach (or often simply Lovina) is a coastal area on the northwestern side of the island of Bali, Indonesia. The coastal strip stretches from 5 km west of the city of Singaraja to 15 km west. Singaraja is the seat of Buleleng Regency. The Lovina area contains the small villages (from east to west) of Pemaron, Tukad Mungga, Anturan, Banyualit, Kalibukbuk, Kaliasem and Temukus. It is becoming more popular with tourists but remains far quieter than the tourist hotspots of the island's south side.

The area takes its name from a home owned by Pandji Tisna, a Regent of Buleleng and pioneer of tourism to Bali in the early 1950s.

Popular activities for visitors include early-morning boat trips off the coast to see dolphins.

History

Around the 1950s, Anak Agung Panji Tisna, had traveled to several countries in Europe and Asia. He stayed several weeks in Bombay (now Mumbai). What attracts him most was the life of the people in India. By observing the people way of life in the area, then he got the thought and the outlook for Bali, especially the development of social welfare, especially in the Buleleng region. While he was in Bombay, Panji Tisna saw a place that beautifully laid out as a spot for leisure on the beach. The land has much similarity with which he owned on Kampung Baru Beach – Buleleng – North Bali, that also lies between two rivers. Panji Tina’s inspiration arises to create a resort like that. The land already in hand.

Returning from abroad in 1953, Anak Agung Panji Tisna immediately declared his muse and began to build on his land, a cottage called Guesthouse "LOVINA". The place was designed for the "travelers" or tourists for a vacation. The guesthouse was furnished with 3 bedrooms and a small restaurant near the sea. Some business observers claim cynically, that the plan of Panji Tisna will not work as expected. The time was too early to make business of such a kind, on a secluded beach such as the beach of Tukad Cebol. Local cultural observer states, "Lovina" was a foreign word, not Balinese. Furthermore, there is no letter "v" in Balinese alphabet. Another comment say, do not use the word "Lovina". “Lovina” must be deleted. Anak Agung Panji Tisna, in 1959, sold the Lovina Guesthouse to his kin, Anak Agung Ngurah Sentanu, 22 years, as the owner and manager of Lovina. Business is going pretty well. However, there are no travelers or tourists. Only a few of Panji Tisna’s friends came from America and Europe, as well as the regional government officials and businessmen from Singaraja for a vacation. Feel lucky too, because on special days such as Sundays and holidays, also on holidays such as Galungan and Kuningan, many people including students came to enjoy the natural atmosphere on the beach of Tukad Cebol.

"Karma" in the life of Lovina.

Singaraja was the capital city for Bali - Lombok, and Nusa Kecil, maintaining a steady state as a center of government and commerce activities for so long. However, such conditions suddenly change. In early 1960, the capital moved to Denpasar. Singaraja was left as a deserted city. Construction activities, and trade plummeted in Singaraja. It needs years to get back to the normal conditions in North Bali. The young manager, Ngurah Sentanu had the worst experience in running the "Lovina Guesthouse". But he accepted the task and mandate from Panji Tisna. What the business analysts had foreseen is correct. However, is there really something wrong with Lovina?

The beginning of tourism in Bali.

Bali Beach Hotel built in 1963, since then tourism became popular in Bali. Construction of tourism facilities such as hotels and restaurants began to spread throughout Bali. Tourists flock to Bali after the Ngurah Rai International Airport opened in 1970. Buleleng programmed so that the government encouraged the tourism sector as one of the mainstay for economic progress and social welfare. In the meantime, the spotlight focused on the role of Lovina in the field of tourism, emerging pros and cons.

North Bali starts to squirm.

In the Eastern part of Buleleng regency, the natural fresh water pool of Yeh Sanih, in the village of Bukti being extensively renovated, rose as a rival to Lovina. The development of Yeh Sanih got more support than Lovina, both by the government officials and the tourism observer. That is because Yeh Sanih is indigenous. Meanwhile, the travel agents choose Lovina, as demanded by most of the tourists.

Lovina banned officially.

Development of tourism in Bali was increased rapidly in 1980, urged the government to form the Tourist Areas, such as tourist area "Kuta" and "Sanur". In Buleleng district, "Kalibukbuk" and "Air Sanih" formed as Tourist Areas. The Governor of Bali pointed out, that the Bali culture and tourism rooted by using the name of the original village. Also said that "Lovina" is not recognized, it should discontinued. The tourist businesses, therefore, began using the local names like Angsoka, Nirvana, Lila Cita, Banyualit, Kalibukbuk, Aditya, Ayodia, and other local names. Meanwhile, Anak Agung Panji Tisna built a hotel with the name "Tasik Madu", that means "Sea of Honey", 100 meters west of Lovina, which form the alternative destination, without the presence of Lovina. Once renovated, the "Lovina Guesthouse" opened using an alias name, "Permata Cottage". Eversince, "Lovina" locked safely by the owner, Anak Agung Ngurah Sentanu.

Hidden for 10 years, Lovina came back as "mascot".

Lovina has already known as a tourist destination in North Bali. Tourist businesses demanded the presence of Lovina. The historical Lovina that ever had to be "Permata Cottages" was back with original name "Lovina Beach Hotel". Then in 1990, Lovina "covers" not less than 6 native beaches in 2 (two) different District areas. In Buleleng District, there is the Binaria Beach in Kalibukbuk village, the Banyualit Beach in Banyualit village, the Kubu Gembong Beach of Anturan / Tukadmungga village, the Hepi Beach of Tukadmungga village, and the Pemaron Beach in Pemaron village. In the Banjar District, there is the Kampung Baru /Tukad Cebol Beach in Kaliasem village, this is the birthplace of Lovina, and the Temukus coastal village. All six beaches / villages combine to "Lovina Beach". Meanwhile, the official name is "Kalibukbuk Tourism Area".

Lovina brought blessing for the community.

In the beginning, Lovina was rejected, not recognized, suspicion. However, the reality now, Lovina was a blessing to many people. The dream of Anak Agung Panji Tisna has materialized at last. The "Lovina Beach Hotel", is still existed and running until now.

The Meaning of Lovina.

"Love" and "Ina" which translates as "Love Indonesia", is not true in the context of Panji Tisna. The term "INA" stands for the Indonesian contingent or group of athletes for the Asian Games 1963. Meanwhile, Lovina founded in 1953. According to Panji Tisna, “Lovina” has a philosophical meaning, a mixture of two-syllable word "Love" and "Ina". The word "Love" from the English meaning genuine love and "Ina" a Balinese word means "Mother". The meaning of "Lovina", according to Anak Agung Panji Tisna, is "Love Mom" or virtuous meaning is "Love Mother Earth".

0 A Glimpse of Pura Besakih

A glimpse of Pura Besakih

This is about Besakih, before there was anything there is only timber as well as wilderness at that place, so also there is Rupek Segara before (the Bali Strait). Bali and Java were still to become one and yet are separated by sea. The island is long and named the island of Dawa. In East Java, Mount Rawang (now known as Raung) there's a Yogi or hermit named Rishi Markandeya.

He originated and Hindustan (India), by the pengiring-pengiringnya called Lord Giri Rawang because spiritual purity, finesse and his wisdom (Milky sidhi ngucap). In the beginning The Yogi Markandeya asceticism on Mount Demulung, later moved to mount Hyang (it is said that DIYENG is Mount Hyang in Central Java that comes and says in HYANG). The length he meditated there, got orders from Hyang Widhi Wasa so that he and his followers merabas forest on the island of Dawa once completed, so that the land was doled out to his followers.

The Yogi Markandeya carry out orders of it and immediately set off to the East along the pengiring-pengiringnya less the amount of 8000 people. After arriving at the intended site of The Yogi Markandeya tells all attendants working merabas wilderness, implemented as it should be.

The merabas forest, a lot of the companion of The Yogi Markandeya who are sick and dying and there is also the dead eat wild animals, because it is not preceded by the ceremonial yagya (bebanten/offerings)

Then perabasan forest was halted and The Markandeya Yogi returned to repel a place originally (Supposedly to Raung in East Java. For some time The Yogi Markandeya lives in the mountain Roared. On a day that is considered good (adult Ayu) he again wanted to continue the perabasan forest to the opening of a new area, accompanied by the sages and hermits who invited together invoke the wara nugraha kehadapan Hyang Widhi Wasa to the success of this work. This time the attendants totaling 4000 people coming and the village of Age (population at the foot of the mountain Roared) by bringing more agricultural tools include seeds to be planted in the forest that will dirabas it. Upon arriving at the place of destination, The Yogi Markandeya soon do tapa semadi yoga together other Yogis and offered the upakara yajna Yajna, the Gods and Yagya Blind. After the ceremony was over, his followers were told to continue working perabasan the forests, cutting down trees and others started and South to North. Because it is already quite a lot of dirabas forest, then thanks to asung wara nugraha Hyang Widhi Wasa, The Yogi Markandeya tells perabasan forests, it stopped and he started holding Division-the Division of land for the foundation of the followers of each rice field, tegal and housing.

In a place where the forest begins perabasan The Yogi Markandeya planting jugs (payuk) filled with water, as well as Pancadatu which is in the form of metallic gold, silver, copper, bronze and iron Ruby Gems accompanied by Adi (GEMS) and upakara (bebanten/offerings) read more diperciki tirta Pangentas (holy water). A place where it's planted means named BASUKI. Since that time the followers of The Yogi Markandeya who came at the time-the next time as well as the merabas forest to the opening of new frontiers, not to mention the disaster which struck as ever experienced in the past. So is a little excerpt from the lontar Markandeya Purana about the origins of the village and the mother temple of Besakih, which as mentioned earlier, Basuki and in its development and then to this day named Besakih.

May be based on the experience, and also based on what is listed in the teachings of Hinduism about Panca Yadnya, until recently each time Hindus would build something good building homes, public offices, until the construction of the temple, similarly started working in the rice fields or in companies, first they hold upakara yagya as Nasarin Mendem or Base. It was only after the work began, with the hope to get success in spiritual Hindu religious in addition to efforts undertaken with effort-physical effort as well as the skills or expertise they have. Then pay attention to the contents of the Markandeya Purana as well it last and also connected with the fact-the fact that we can see on a daily basis until such time as it's about the life of the community, especially in terms of setting the indigenous village and water control in rice fields. Therefore we can deduce that the Besakih is the first place of our ancestors moved from Raung in East Java province initially build a village and employment especially in the field of agriculture and animal husbandry. Similarly develop the teachings of Hinduism.

1. Pura Pesimpangan

From Pura Dalem Puri to the East and turning southward on the East side of the highway, in a rather secluded, located Pesimpangan Temple.

The Hindus have had made Upakara Pitra Yagya that cremation and Memukur or Ngeroras is usually to this temple, The Nuntun Mendak Pitara for distanakan in Close or Pemerajan respectively.

This is done because the area between the Pura Manik Mas to the peak called Telajakan Besakih Temple namely Soring Ambal-ambal Luhuring Ambal and-ambal. Therefore either once when starting now pioneered the path for each person who will pray to the Pura Penataran Agung Besakih, first down and pray in the Temples, and Mas Beads afterward after that walk to the Pura Penataran Agung so the grandeur and glory of the mother temple of Besakih will increasingly be felt as well as infused.

To the West of the road is Pura Ulun Kulkul in which Hyang distanakan Mahadeva. A kulkul (slit drum) is present in this temple and is seen as the most important kulkul and noble than all kulkul in Bali. In ancient times any village or banjarese made kulkul, kulkul it should be dipelaspas and tirta petitioned in Pura Ulun Kulkul, so top asung wara nugraha Hyang Widhi Wasa, kulkul have taksu, that is adhered to by krama village or krama pemaksan temple the kulkul will wear.

0 Tanah Lot Temple

Tanah Lot is located on the South coast of the island of Bali at the kecamatan Kediri, Tabanan Regency. The construction of the temple is closely associated with Danghyang Nirartha traveled to Bali island. Here he lived and taught religion in his journey from Rambut Siwi temple to the Badung.

Held every Pujawali Buda Wage Langkir. Its Pelinggih there are two, one for memulyakan in his manifestation as Hyang Widi the God Varuna and another for Danghyang Nirarta as the founder of this place.

First Pura Kahyangan is named Pekendungan Temple, now known as Tanah Lot temple as one penyungsungan jagat. Pura Kahyangan now is not only known throughout the country, but have been to around the world. The landscape is the preferred tourist attractions

Once, Danghyang Niratha traveled from Rambut Siwi Temple i.e in about the year 1411 Icaka (1489M). In his journey he dibuntuti by a number of members of the public who follow the blessed because they expect it. When he arrived in the village of Beraban he found good places to stay and at the same time teaching the religion. The place is finally building into a Temple now captivate the attention of the world for their beauty.

Tanah Lot is a rock formation off the Indonesian island of Bali. It is home of a pilgrimage temple, the Pura Tanah Lot (literally "Tanah Lot temple"), and a popular tourist and cultural icon for photography and general exoticism.

History

Tanah Lot means "Land [sic: in the] Sea" in the Balinese language. Located in Tabanan, about 20 kilometres (12 mi) from Denpasar, the temple sits on a large offshore rock which has been shaped continuously over the years by the ocean tide.
Tanah Lot is claimed to be the work of the 15th-century priest Nirartha. During his travels along the south coast he saw the rock-island's beautiful setting and rested there. Some fishermen saw him, and bought him gifts. Nirartha then spent the night on the little island. Later he spoke to the fishermen and told them to build a shrine on the rock for he felt it to be a holy place to worship the Balinese sea gods.
The Tanah Lot temple was built and has been a part of Balinese mythology for centuries. The temple is one of seven sea temples around the Balinese coast. Each of the sea temples were established within eyesight of the next to form a chain along the south-western coast. However, the temple had significant Hindu influence.
At the base of the rocky island, poisonous sea snakes are believed to guard the temple from evil spirits and intruders. A giant snake purportedly protects the temple, which was created from Nirartha's scarf when he established the island.

Restoration

In 1980, the temple's rock face was starting to crumble and the area around and inside the temple started to become dangerous. The Japanese government then provided a loan to the Indonesian government of Rp 800 billion (approximately USD $130 million) to conserve the historic temple and other significant locations around Bali. As a result, over one third of Tanah Lot's "rock" is actually cleverly disguised artificial rock created during the Japanese-funded and supervised renovation and stabilization program.

Tourism

The area leading to Tanah Lot is highly commercialized and people are required to pay to enter the area. To reach the temple, visitors must walk through a carefully planned set of Balinese market-format souvenir shops which cover each side of the path down to the sea. On the mainland cliff tops, restaurants have also been provided for tourists.
