Kintamani

Kintamani is a village on the western edge of the larger caldera wall of Gunung Batur in Bali (source: Wikipedia). 

Food with a view at Batur Sari Restaurant. The buffet here is nothing remarkable (and expensive at $15 per person), you're really just paying for the view. 

Double selfie sticks.  

The driver we hired to take us around actually just dropped us off here and didn't give much of a choice. I think the restaurant had some kind of agreement with the drivers. There were also lots of tour buses that came here. So yes, this place is pretty touristy. I think it's difficult to find a place in Bali that isn't.  

You can see Mount Batur more clearly here. 

A woman sells fruits at the roadside. I've also seen people sell puppies on the roadside here. 

Lake Batur on the right.  

Roadside shops as usual.  

Quite a pretty place.  It is unfortunate that it has become so touristy.
