Please Note: This review is for The Vihara Dharmayana Temple in Kuta. It’s submitted here because this temple does not have a Tripadvisor site for reviews. Bonnie, our driver asked if we wanted to stop at this Chinese Buddhist Temple in Kuta en-route to Anika Tailor. We were excited as we missed visiting a Buddhist temple whilst in Lovina. Buddhism is similar to Hindu Religion and on many levels it connected well with aspects of our faith and belief, also an opportunity to extend our knowledge and clear our busy minds. The temple dates back to 1876 and is located on JL Blambangan a busy strip of town. Crossing the road was like a ‘tight rope walk’ as we dodged the traffic. Kuta is well known for it’s chaotic, full on boisterous party scene and beach sunsets, so we were surprised to have stumbled across a bit of peace and serenity at this Buddhist temple. The courtyard has a warm and peaceful feeling displaying goddess statues, menacing dragons wrapped around elaborate pillars. The entrance is dominated in beautiful red and gold with ornate structures, large red lanterns effortlessly swaying in the afternoon breeze. We took off our shoes and stepped inside, observed locals praying and quietly chanting, captivated by swirls of fragrant incense sticks adding to the spiritual atmosphere. We gently tip toed around listening and admiring the intricate interior, leaving us to question many things in life we take for granted. A sense of peace and calmness lifted our spirits and we appreciated how religion can change one’s thoughts and thinking even momentarily. We wondered at our leisure and it was nice not to be hurried at any point. Bonnie gave us adequate opportunity for photos and ask local devotees insightful questions, although I guess this would have been in broken English. The temple is not huge but well maintained, clean and it’s striking architecture gives it that far eastern-style ambience. We enjoyed our stop here and learned religion plays an imperative part in the lives of Balinese people and culture. We left with strong emotions of calmness and a clear mind reflecting how dipping into a spiritual world for a short space of time can alter your mindfulness, we showed our gratitude by leaving a donation. Yep! we walked away taking only the good, now we were ready to uncover the other crazy side of Kuta! Tip: Check opening times prior to visit, be mindful of your attire i.e. no bare arms, no shorts and be generous in leaving a donation. Terima makasi. Indu & Versha.
