Visit Pura Luhur Uluwatu – the famous cliff-top monkey temple

Arguably Bali’s most breathtaking temple with its ocean backdrop and dizzying perch, Pura Luhur Uluwatu is a must-visit if you’re looking for awesome and cultural things to do in Uluwatu. Located high above the crashing waves, this sacred temple was built for the spirits of the sea in the 10th century, laced with ancient architecture, intricate sacred sculptures, and… hundreds of monkeys. Yup, this popular spot is also known as the Uluwatu Monkey Temple, famous for its winding cliff-edge pathways guarded by families of (sometimes pesky) macaques.
