Pura Agung Narmada, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia

3.5 (202 reviews) Spent Ranking #3 in West Nusa Tenggara Parks

An old historical place you don't want to miss!

Yes, it might not be properly maintained by the local government. But the historical place is not something you want to miss on your trip. It used to be the palace of Pangeran Suropati from Mataram. With the help of local guides, you will learn the parts of the palace. You will find where the prince had lived, the training ground for Mataram army, and also the mythical "fountain of youth" .... the priest would even let you drink from the fountain... The surrounding give you a sense of tranquility. However, the best time to go is on weekdays, especially on low season. And, if you are interested in local handicrafts, you will find local pearl arts just outside the temple.

Calm and relaxing ambience
The only tourist spot close to downtown Mataram. The entrance fee is cheap. It's best to hire tour guides so he may take you through all the interesting spots around the place and also tells you the story behind the water park. The main attraction to this place is doing a ceremony to the local deity, a goddess of beauty, also by drinking the blessed water running inside the shrine. Then the guide will give you the option to take some of the blessed water inside a bottle. The water is free but the bottle is not (they insist on selling the bottle to you). It's not a problem to reject the offer. One hour is enough to visit every part of this place including the ceremony. Overall experience was good.

heritage that needs immediate help
very large site, ruins of an old imperial palace, great location! loved the pools area but to be honest this place need a serious attention from government to be better maintain, if not then this very valuable historic sites will be destroyed immediately swallowed by its age
