Penglipuran Village is a traditional Bali Aga community in the Bangli highlands — a living example of the ancient village design principles that predate the Majapahit Hindu influence that reshaped most of Balinese culture. It was declared one of the cleanest villages in the world by the United Nations and attracts visitors for its immaculate streets, architectural uniformity, and authentic preservation of ancestral custom. The village is laid out along a single straight ceremonial axis running north–south, anchored by the Pura Puseh temple at the northern sacred end and the Pura Dalem (death temple) at the southern end, with the village's communal spaces arranged between. Every family compound along the main path has an identical bamboo-gated entrance (angkul-angkul) of the same height and style, creating a serene colonnade effect when walking the length of the village. Motor vehicles are prohibited within the village boundary. Residents still practice traditional land use: the bamboo forest that borders the village to the north is communally managed, and each family maintains fruit gardens. The village produces bamboo handicrafts and traditional Balinese rice wine, and hosts cultural demonstrations for visitors including traditional weaving and cooking.
