" This was a great stop on our tours around Bali. From the street I couldn't see what to really expect but as we entered and explored we were delighted with one temple after another. One highlight we had that day was a native lady making her offerings for the day. Her care in her worship was heartwarming to see. She would stop at each of her special locations to leave offerings and pray. I fun time was when a group of young Chinese girls asked if I would take their picture at one of the gates. Great place with lots of families on outings. "

" If you’re an Indonesian, you’ll agree with me that this garden is (one of) the tidiest garden or park in Indonesia. Well worth noting that it’s actually a front gate toward the Temple compound inside. That’s why the condition is being kept tiny and very tranquil. If you’re from Western the tedious condition of the garden would remind you of those park in your homeland, yet of course with authentic Balinese feeling.
After going in, on the first right building there’s a mannequin display of the famous Balinese culture, cockerel fight. Pass that and go through to the inner part, there’s the Temple compound which meticulously designed considering it’s placing and size. Although you cannot enter the compound (my assumption it’s the same with Uluwatu, it’s only accessible for those who need to pray), the short brick fence allow you to see and take picture of the compound.
The outer track which surrounded the compound also carefully planted with high tree which gave you much more soothing breeze (especially considering my visit was during summer, the front area is very open and so hot). There are some small bench if you want to sit and there’s a building which act as an art souvenir shop at the far left corner.
This spot is a refreshing stop/rest point if you’re considering going across Bali (west-east/south north) which also act as a tourism spot. Very near to the garden also small convenience store and local food booth, which could provide you with F&B. "

" Taman Ayun Temple was on our list when we skipped the tour and decided to simply rent a car to Ubud in Bali. We did a half day drive and had lunch overlooking the rice terraces, did some sightseeing in Ubud, and then made our visit to Taman Ayu Temple. The architecture was inspirational set beside a beautiful forest garden perfect for a cool walk. You are sure to never forget your stroll around the inner sanctum of the water temples. "

" Another UNESCO site in Bali. There are 3 courts to visit. There's only one worth taking great photos which is the 3rd court. The other 2 are just mediocre. Beware of mosquitoes. There're many ponds with still water behind this temple which become breeding ground for mosquitoes. "

" Good sight seeing experience, with 3 main court yards and a huge garden to soak in the beautiful architecture and Balinese design.
Entrance tickets are Rupiah 20k per person for foreigners (Rupiah 10k for locals). Female visitors will be given one sarong to cover up before entry.
You probably end up spending 30 - 45 minutes here, with some walking around and photography of the sights. "

" Though this is not a big temple it is one of the beautiful and attractive temple in Bali. Very nicely laid out garden and the moat around the main temple is really impressive.

" Pura Taman Ayun magnificent temple surrounded by lake, The Taman Ayun “beautiful garden” gives serenity and tranquillity for tourists."
Pura Taman Ayun, The temples in Bali are usually crowded since there are group of tourist or backpackers who are exploring the different kinds of temples.
If you want to take a break and find tranquillity amidst the hordes of people, Taman Ayun is the ideal place. "
