The Allure of Campuhan Hill

The island of the Gods has the heart of culture, Ubud. Everything that represents Balinese culture and nature is here. It is located near Gunung Lebah Temple, a place full of spiritual content.

This sacred place is the spot of the important meeting point of two rivers, which also means a meeting point of several energies. The term ‘campuhan’ itself refers to ‘mixture’. So, historically, the name is derived from its role as the meeting point of many energies.

The local priests believe that this place has a big energy and has become the spiritual hub. The spiritual experts all over the world also recognized it as a place with big spiritual content. Long before it became a tourist attraction, this place was known more as a meditation place.

Recently, this hill has been known as an attraction for Bali tour package users, without forgetting its original function. The visitors must keep their voices down to respect the other visitors who are doing meditation. Apart from its function for praying and meditating, the view is incredibly beautiful.

The visitors can feel the strong, peaceful atmosphere. With the rise of mental health awareness, modern people now also see it as a place for doing modern meditation and self-reflection. This is exciting because its original function is recognized globally in this modern era. This place often becomes a starting spot (ended in Gunung Lebah Temple, and vice versa) for meditational walking.

In Contrast to the ‘Beach’ Image of Bali

This island of the Gods is famous for its beautiful beaches. Some beaches have beautiful white sand; others have black sand. The beaches in Bali travel vacation frequently become tourist destinations. An important thing that many people don’t know is that this island also has the opposite of a beach view, a hill.

Campuhan Hill is located in the Ubud Highlands. When the wave in the sea produces a typical water sound, in Campuhan Hill, the sound that you can hear is bird chirping, the sound of the leaves that are blown by the wind, and everything that’s hill thing related. In the cultural view, beaches offer a modern and global tourism influence.

Meanwhile, Campuhan Hill is full of traditional rituals. When on the beach, there are countless beach clubs, surfing clubs, etc., on the hill, there are artisan villages, temples, and visitors who join spiritual retreats.

Underlined Things in Campuhan Hill

The spiritual content in this place is full, which has been recognized globally. With less commercialized service, this place is more authentic than other places. There are no over-promoted resorts around, or light pollution and noise pollution.

The commercial services in this place are more like rejuvenation, not noisy recreation. It is easier to find a holistic healing, detox, or yoga retreat service than to find a club with loud music.

This hill is a perfect representation of Balinese culture, green nature, and spirituality. It is the opposite of the beaches that carry screams and laughter. This place gives another form of happiness that focuses on inner peace. So, both beach and hill do not compete with each other but rather complete in harmony.

The Best Time and the Tips for Doing an Afternoon Stroll

The sunset view gives an exotic orange color. Photography enthusiasts love to take pictures with this natural background light. The prime time with the best view is around 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 PM. The heat from the sun’s exposure at noon fades away. The landscape is full of golden sunlight with fresh air. This transition is perfect from the temperature perspective or the exotic scenic landscape.

A stunning sunset photograph will be the best at this time, and the surroundings are also the best for relaxing. To have a good stroll, wear proper walking shoes. The path is friendly for beginners, but some spots are uneven.

Good walking shoes are compulsory. Don’t forget to wear a hat and apply sunscreen cream to your skin because the sunlight can expose some spots. It will not be as hot as the middle of the day, but to protect your skin from any possibility, it is better to provide proper skin protection. Prepare a smartphone or camera with a full battery to capture the best panoramic view. Bring enough supplies (water and food) to stay hydrated.
