Great temple in Ubud city center, amazing for pics
We visited Saraswati temple only because it was bang in the center of Ubud city center and just a 5 minute walk to our hotel. The temple has amazing grounds with extensive lotus pond, very Indian jones type foresty temple setting which made for amazing pictures. The temple itself we could enter but we ended up spending a nice 15 minutes at the temple grounds appreciating the setting and taking some great snaps.

Beautiful, peaceful temple
We had the chance to visit Saraswati on Galungan Day and it was such an enjoyable visit. Really take your time and just soak in the beauty of this temple. From the gorgeous flowers along your walk in, to the intricate detail throughout the temple, it's a real testament to the skill and dedication of the Balinese people to their religion and culture. Tip: Be mindful of the signage throughout the temple. This is an active temple, people still come to worship here, and there are signs alerting you of places you can't enter and things you should not take pictures of. There were a few tourists who ignored these signs while we were there and the locals had to intervene -- please don't be this person.
