Puri Ageng Blahbatuh | Bali Royal Palace

Puri Ageng Blahbatuh, a Beautiful Bali Royal Palace

In a wonderful day I would like to visit a beautiful place in Bali. I want to visit a Royal Palace is located in Blahbatuh Village, Gianyar Regency. This place is so beautiful with a location at the center of the Belahbatuh Village and beside of Blahbatuh traditional market. This Royal Palace is famous by the name of Puri Ageng Blahbatuh. In the past Puri Ageng Blahbatuh originally known as the Orchid Palace, because the king of Blahbatuh used Puri Ageng to keep several orchids and enter them into competitions, thus winning second place with them at a competition in Singapore in the 1970s. Nowadays, as time has passed the orchids are no more, however, the palace is still well worth a visit.

Puri Ageng Blahbatuh was originally built around the year 1570-1600 of the Cakra calendar and was founded by the dynasty of King I Gusti Ngurah Jelantik VIII. The sprawling complex measures around four hectares.

I can walk around the grounds of the palace without the intrusion of too many tourists. I can feel I was a family king here. Members of the family who are also residents of the palace are normally walking around and you never know you may be lucky enough to be shown around by the King of Blahbatuh himself. It's so amazing place to visit!

Puri Ageng Blabatuh is also famous by beautiful features including unique temple artwork, a peaceful meditation temple surrounded by waters and some stunning wood furniture. You may also see ladies making traditional rugs using the loom. If you are lucky you will see the local people play Balinese culture there are including gamelan, dance and much more.

If you interest in this place you can come to Puri Ageng Blahbatuh and feel different sensations there. Don't forget in Puri Ageng Blahbatuh you can try to learn Balinese dance and gamelan. There are you will feel comfortable because the family of the king so friendly and polite with the visitor who comes to Puri Ageng Blahbatuh.
