The name of Bukit Jambul was firstly given during the Dutch invasion in Indonesia by a tourist, who was inspired by a high hill standing on the south of the main road connecting Klungkung regency and Besakih of Karangasem regency. There is a Hindu Temple called Pura Pucak Sari on the top of the hill, which is surrounded by big trees. Below the temple complex there is a stunning panorama of rice fields. This makes the trees look like a tufting hair from a distance ( Bukit = hill, Jambul = Tuft of hair).

Location:
Bukit Jambul is located at Pesaban traditional village, Nongan village, Rendang district. It is approximately 8 kms from Klungkung regency to the north, and about 51 kms from Denpasar or 15 kms from Besakih Temple.

Facility:
This area is facilitated with food stalls or “warung” and also small restaurants, with a quite large parking lot.

Description:
Bukit Jambul is renown as an outstanding natural tourist destination due to the harmonious combination of hilly land, rice fields, valleys and the beautiful sea panorama in a distance. From high land, we will be able to witness the beauty of the nature beneath

Just north of Karangasem, on the slopes leading up to Mount Agung, is Tirta Gangga, a veritable water playground designed by 6 princes in the Royal Family of Karangasem as a resting place. The exotic pools and water fountains sustained some damage during the eruptions of Mt. Agung, but the water gardens remain as serene, and temting as ever, to the weary traveler. Tirta Gangga is the site of a beautiful palace by the water, built by the last king of Karangasem, Anak Agung Anglurah Ketut, in 1947. Some part of the palace was demolished by the eruption in 1963, but the famous bathing pools remains. The palace offers a great peace and contains a network of pools and a swimming pool fed by a natural spring, surrounded by some of the most beautiful rice terraces in Bali.  North of Tirta Gangga is Tulamben. SS Liberty, the American war ship sunk by the Japanese in 1942, lies just off the beach and is accessible from the beach. It's a long way from anywhere on this barren coast, but worth a pause on tourist's travel
