A Unique Eco-Tourism Destination with Traditional and Spiritual Connections The lumbung,' or rice granary, is part of Bali's unique cultural heritage. Traditionally used to store rice - under the protection of the Hindu goddess Dewi Sri - lumbungs are now seldom used because farming techniques have changed.puri Lumbung Cottages is set in the cool mountain air where fans and air-conditioning are unnecessary. Our property is designed in the traditional Balinese manner, modeled on the sacred human form, with shrines at the head, guest accommodation at the heart and other facilities at the foot. Guests enjoy spectacular sunsets and stunning panoramas of mountains and rice fields, with the valley below and the Sea of Bali just beyond. The first of its kind in Bali, Puri Lumbung Cottages is more than a retreat - it is an eco-tourism retreat dedicated to the discovery, conservation and enhancement of the unspoiled area around Munduk. Our vision and projects encompass an entire watershed: from the gorgeous Lake Tamblingan to the sea, with Munduk nestled in the middle. We employ or otherwise engage local people in activities that sustain the integrity of the land and its water resource. Munduk is surrounded by rice terraces, forests of clove trees and other traditional commodities such as coffee, cacao, vanilla, etc. The forests depend entirely on annual rainfall for sustenance, hence our reference to them as rain forests. Our economy depends on these renewable resources for our livelihood. Those wishing a truly unique ecoexperience are encouraged to look at our Tamblang Nature Cabins, where guests take part in forest restoration and water conservation projects while also gathering locally-grown food to augment their meals.
