The origin of the name Tanah Lot Temple, according to folklore, is that within the sea erosion cave at the base of the temple, several black-and-white snakes resembling coral snakes once appeared. Locals believe these are incarnations of the sea god, protecting the temple and the people. Since then, the temple has been perpetually filled with incense, with devout villagers visiting in an endless stream. Though the temple holds significant meaning, most tourists come here not so much to admire the temple architecture, but primarily to catch the stunning sunset views.
