Goa lawah temple is worth to visit. There is a cave full of bats. thats why the temple named "Goa Lawah" - bat's cave (but not bruce wayne's cave). Dont forget to bring a saroong or you can buy there, you cant get in to the temple without it. Also ask your local guide what is the best time to visit the temple, you can see one of Balinese Ceremony if you come in the right time.

Thousands of Hindu temples are on the island of Bali. One is bigger, another smaller, but essentially all is equal. During the holiday you can visit 1-3 and it will be enough for you. I do not advise you to specially go to one or another sanctuary.

Tiny nice temple full with bats. Not overpriced yet as all other temples in Bali, you just pay 6000 rupiah each.

Very cheap 7,000 rupee for one persob. But not well maintained. Note, do not buy sarong from outside as there are free inside at ticket booth, just return after tour. We were offered sarong for 100,000 rupee each which dropped to 50,000 rupee each after negotiation. Then we learnt that there are free inside.

Nice temple, but not too large. You can finish in 15min. If you are close by, then stop by! Entrance fee is IDR 10000.

Boys and girls must wear a Sarong. There are vendors selling them in the parking lot. It's best to come prepared. I was shocked at the bat cave. I truly thought there were bats flying around then realized there were hundreds just hanging there! Make sure you tell your children or they may scream!

Goa Lawah or Bat cave temple. Hindu's temple. A must visit place in Bali when holiday.

Active temple with a cave really full of bats.. it's quite a sight. You'll likely also witness a prayer.

is the most important temple that is included in a series of Balinese ceremonies of the sea (Goa Lawah) to the mountain (Besakih). As the name goa mean cave there is a cave very deep no one know how depth the hole of the cave, in the mouth of cave thousands of lawah (fruit-bat) hanging on the cave wall, luckily if you see a Python creep along crack of the wall hunt the bat.

Very active temple, often there are ceremonies going on here (or on the beach in front), definitely worth a stop, check out the big bats, awesome! Small entrance fee for foreigners, sarong is provided at the entrance if you didn't bring your own...

Amazing bat temple. There is a secret path at the back where you go up the hill to the other temple and see the views of the vicinity.

Goa Lawah is one of Bali’s most important temples. It features a complex built around a cave opening that is inhabited by hordes of bats, and its name translates to 'Bat Cave’. This temple was established in the 11th century by Mpu Kuturan, one of early priests who laid the foundations of Hinduism on the island.
Goa Lawah is located in the village of Pesinggahan, Dawan district, bordering the Klungkung and Karangasem regencies. This landmark is one of the first stops on tours to Candidasa and further eastern regions within the Karangasem regency.
The Goa Lawah Temple is a large complex on the north side of the Jalan Raya Goa Lawah main road. It is a stopover for holidaying locals who come in with offerings and do short prayers before continuing with their journey. For general visitors, it is an included itinerary on temple tours for photo opportunities together with refreshment breaks at the kiosks across the road on Goa Lawah Beach. You can see the outline of Nusa Penida Island on the horizon from here.
Location and Setting
The Bat Cave temple is located at the south east coast of Bali, roughly 10km away from Klungkung, 10km south of Candidasa in the village of Pasinggahan. It's just beside the main road tot he eastern part of Bali such as Candidasa, Padangbai, Karangasem, Amlapura and next to a beautiful black sandy beach. From here you can see at the horizon the coast of Nusa Penida.
It’s now a common stop for heading towards the east. For tourists and worshipping locals who are on their way and stop to give offerings and pray.
The rather large temple complex is built around the entrance to a cave that is home to many, many, many! bats. Goa Lawah translates into Bat Cave for a good reason. You will see two large, majestic banyan trees at the main entrance.
Some shrines in the centre are ancient from the time the temple has been established. Take notice of the motifs of the dragon who is in charge of keeping the universe at balance.
Good to Know
According to some tales, the cave has a pathway up to Besakih temple in the north at the foot of Mount Agung. It is believed that a Mengwi prince discovered the connection when he took refuge in the cave hiding from enemies. Some locals also believe that there are two more pathways, one to Tangkid Bangbang and one to Talibeng. Although those claims have never been proven.
Mornings is a good time to witness many locals who come for their prayers. It’s generally a busy place because of its popularity and its easy access but one can still experience the magnificence of this place. Afternoons are also nice as it is not so hot anymore and visitors enjoy the shady places underneath the trees.
Hindus on Bali celebrate the anniversary of their temples (piodalan), which is based on the Balinese 210 days cycle calendar (Pawukon). To visit main temples such as Goa Lawah or Uluwatu is a great experience. When on Bali always check with the locals if some piodalan is scheduled during your visit. The busy temples on Bali are well kept and maintained, also Goa Lawah is in great shape and some costly renovations can be financed due to the entrance fee and the high numbers of visitors.
Like at all main temples on Bali you will find countless souvenir shops and little restaurants (warung) where you can buy the usual souvenirs, some drinks and food.

This is one of sacred temple in east part of Bali, for Balinese people who wants to go to Lombok they will be stop in here for worshipping before continue their trip. In this place also have a lot of seafood restaurants with cheap price and kindly staff and good taste of food.

This is the temple with the cave full of bats.
There was some sort of ceremony going while I was there and was able to see how they conduct their ceremony.
