The day begins on a cool mountain road where mist clings to the roadside ferns and the Handara gate rises like a frame for the smoky hills beyond. A private car threads through terraced farms toward Lake Bratan; the temple appears to float at the water’s edge while the forest farther north keeps one last secret — Leke-Leke waterfall — tucked behind a short jungle trail.
