Trunyan Village is one of the most unique attractions in Bali. It is located on the isolated eastern shore of the Lake Batur. The village is accessible by boat only. The funeral rite here is unique, the villagers simply put the dead bodies on the ground, covered by cloth and a bamboo cage, and left to decompose. The banyan tree near the burial ground is thought to keep the corpses from smelling putrid. There are many incidents reported about locals were forcing the tourists to give them some money, thus it is very recommended for you to hire a local guide when visiting this village.
