About Bamboo Forest At Penglipuran Village

Dine under the cooling canopy of Penglipuran's bamboo forest inside arched huts woven like leaves. Escape the midday village heat to recharge with honest Balinese home cooking. Diners come for the signature mujair nyat-nyat—freshwater tilapia braised in spiced aromatics until the rich broth reduces. Tables draped in checkered poleng cloth host crisp bananas and glasses of loloh cem-cem, a village-crafted tonic brewed with native leaves, tamarind, palm sugar, and a sliver of chili.

  • Curved Bamboo Gazebos: Open-air seating tucked into curved bamboo huts sheltered under the forest canopy.
  • Regional Heritage Dishes: Village-specialty fish simmered in spice paste alongside refreshing herbal loloh cem-cem.
