Goa Giri Putri Cave Temple
A living temple inside a limestone cave.
You climb a staircase up the cliff face, squeeze through a small stone opening, and step into a cathedral-sized cave with three shrines lit by candles and daylight punching through openings in the roof. It's still an active temple — locals come to pray, not to pose.
A sarong is required (they'll lend you one at the entrance) and a small donation is expected. Take your shoes off. Speak quietly.
Fifteen minutes inside is enough. The atmosphere does the work.
