gate of heaven tour bali

What are you looking for?

A guide to visiting the bali "gates of heaven" (pura luhur lempuyang).

Known locally as Pura Luhur Lempuyang, the Bali “gates of heaven” are an iconic tourist hot spot located in East Bali. Famous for its “reflection”,and it’s view of Mount Agung, tourists flock and queue every single day to get a picture at this famous spot. 

To help you plan your trip, I’m going to provide you with all the information you need to visit the gates of heaven in Bali. 

Travellerspoint

Where are the Bali Gates Of Heaven located? 

Pura Luhur Lempuyang, or the gates of heaven and temple are located in East Bali in the region of Lempuyang. It’s located among the highlands of Mount Lempuyang at a height of 1,775m above sea level.  

There are actually 7 different areas/temples within the complex, but most people simply flock to the “gates of heaven”. 

It’s definitely worth visiting the other temples too as they are just as beautiful. The steepest one sits atop a mountain and you need to climb 1,700 steps. I did not do this, and since this post is for the purpose of the Bali gates of heaven, I’ll give that a miss! 

What time should I visit the Bali Gates Of Heaven?

Early, early and early! So, I went to this temple first thing in the morning and just before sunset and the queues were long all day long. If you want that iconic Instagram picture, then you’re going to have to wait. I suggest you head early and be among the first there. The shortest queue time is around 1 hour but some people have waited up to 2-3 hours. 

I waited one hour, which wasn’t too bad as I was with my sister and we drank coffee and chatted!

How long do I have to queue for the Bali Gates of Heaven? 

Again as mentioned above, the queue time can range from 1 hour to up to 4 hours. It all depends how much you want that picture. But if you go just before the sun rises then your wait will be less. 

How much is the entrance to the Gates of Heaven in Bali? 

There is no technical entrance fee, but a donation is required. You’ll also need a sarong to cover you, regardless of whether you’re already covered (I had a long skirt on), and the donation covers that. 

Pura Lempuyang Temple Opening Hours 

The Bali Gates of Heaven are open daily from 9am to 6pm. 

How do I get to the Gates of Heaven in Bali? 

So, there is no “public” transport to the gates of heaven, so if you want to visit, you have a few options. 

Rent a moped: You can rent a moped and drive to the area yourself, but please get a moped that’s good quality because you’re going to be winding up a steep mountain and you’ll need power to get up there. Trust me! You can book a moped online here. 

Rent a car/driver: You can easily rent a driver for the day in Bali and actually an easy way to do it is through the Grab app. You can rent a driver for 2-6 hours which will be enough time to take you to the gates of heaven. 

Take a tour: I visited the Gates of Heaven with a ForeverVacaition Bali Instagram Tour and it was epic. It’s the first stop of the tour, which is a good thing because of how busy it gets. So if you’re looking for convenience and a chance to visit all the best sights in east Bali and more, then a tour is the way to go. 

I highly recommend this tour which you can book here.

Is there water at the Bali Gates of Heaven? 

Okay, so we’ve all seen the picture of the reflection that makes it look like there is water. There is no water. This is a mirror reflection trick, and I actually think it’s great. The views look amazing without the camera trick, but the camera trick makes for a really cool photo that you can print out and hang in your home. 

Now, if you want a picture that has the volcano in the background, it cannot be guaranteed. It depends on the cloud and whether it’s visible or not. When I visited, there was no way you could see the volcano-- you wouldn’t even believe a volcano was there! 

But, I still think my pictures turned out really awesome thanks to the mirror reflection….

If you’re lucky enough to get a clear day, then your views are going to be amazing! 

Important information about Lempuyang temple 

You have to remember the gates of heaven in Bali is a religious temple, so you need to be respectful. Some rules and information include: 

• Cover up with a sarong, both men and women (remember to read our guide on what to wear in Bali )
• No kissing allowed 
• Women are periods aren’t allowed in (although I’m not sure they can monitor that!) 
• No yoga poses 
• You can buy coffee/tea, other snacks outside the temple 
• You can’t fly a travel drone (no drones allowed over religious temples) 

Where can I stay close to the Bali Gates Of Heaven? 

There are lots of great places to stay in east Bali. You could stay near the coast in Amed and check out the amazing properties there. One of my favourites is Nalini Resort . 

Or, you could stay just 5 km from Lempuyang temple and 1km of Tirta Gangga Water Palace (another popular place to visit in Bali) at Cabe Bali, a beautiful property with a fabulous pool and located within the rice paddies! 

So there you have it, my guide to visiting the Bali “Gates Of Heaven”, otherwise known as Lempuyang temple! I hope you’ve found this information useful and I hope you get lucky with the weather with some amazing pictures. If you’ve got some time, and you aren’t lucky in the morning, you could visit in the evening or wait until the next day!

Gate of Heaven Tour

The fairy tale about the gate to heaven really exists in Bali. The existence of this gate is very appropriate to be juxtaposed in the fairy tale. The location in high mountains with a very draining power to reach the top makes this gate worthy of being the gate of heaven. You will climb hundreds of stairs to reach the top of the temple. With the addition of a very exotic natural scenery from the top of the mountain, this spot is very beautiful for a snapshot.

To reach the gate of heaven, it is quite far from Kuta or Ubud as the center of Bali tourism. There are various tourist sites that must be visited when doing a day tour to lempuyang. You can visit Tirta Gangga Water Park, Taman Ujung, Besakih Temple, Goa Lawah Temple or Tenganan Village.
