Bakmi Kepiting 78E Review Jakarta Indonesia

Uluwatu Temple BALI and Monkey Thieves
On our first trip to Bali, we didn’t have the luxury of time to visit the iconic Uluwatu Temple. Hence, during our honeymoon to Bali, we decided to visit this temple.
From Kuta, we travel south to Uluwatu for the infamous Uluwatu temple. Due to the traffic jam, we took 40 min to reach the Uluwatu temple. Traffic jam is no joke in Bali and that’s why we chose to stay near the airport during our last day of our stay.
