Holy water at Tanah Lot anah Lot tourist attraction is indeed a fantastic destination. In addition to offering a magnificent sunset sensation, it also exudes a positive aura coming from the temples at the surrounding areas.

They believed that by enjoying the holy water, their mind would be fresh and clear like the crystal clear holy water. “Some people believe if they can wash hand, or even wash their face with the holy water, they will stay young,” he said. Besides, local society also believes if the holy water has a quality to cure various diseases. The holy water itself is also believed to be a blessing of salvation by the communities, including the nonHindu. Another uniqueness retained by Tanah Lot is the sacred snake inhabiting the cave below the cliff. Tourists loving animal like best this attraction and they even dare to hold the venomous snake. By all means, they should be guided
by the snake charmer who specially takes care of the animal. This animal becomes a very nice attraction to be published. No one knows about the exact number of the snakes because they always change every day. Well, one thing should be born in mind is that watching the snakes should not get through the afternoon because before the nightfall those snakes will come out and guard the entrance into the Tanah Lot Temple. “Local people believe that those snakes will be in charge of keeping the sanctity of the temple. At that time, no one will dare to go into the temple, even though they will say prayers,” he explained. (BTN/015)
