Pura Tirta Taman Mumbul is a purification water temple.
The ritual involves cleansing in the holy waters to purify the mind and soul.
There are a series of eleven sacred showers representing the Dewata Nawa Sanga (the nine directional gods), along with Dewi Saraswati and Dewi Gangga. We walked through each shower, offering prayers and receiving blessings.
