Information: Be
pampered in an ancient valley of Spiritual Magic, beside a Holy
River surrounded by Sacred Mountains. Contemplate serenity in dancing
waterfalls & meandering pathways. Breathe in the fragrance of a
thousand blossoms. Sacred Mountain is the old Bali which you have
heard so much about, but few today have the privilege of experiencing.
We invite you to come and be one of the lucky.
ECO DESIGN: SACRED MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY is in all senses of the word
a true Eco-Retreat Lodge, from site plan, architecture and gardens
to constructed wetlands wastewater purification. It is the largest
bamboo* building project in Bali and perhaps all of Indonesia and
South East Asia. Over 10,000 bamboo stalks, all from Balinese forests
mostly in the area of the Sanctuary were used and tied together
by local craftsmen in the traditional manner to create the villas.,
Over 3,000 trees were saved by using bamboo as the main building
material. The effect is pure magic, transporting one back in time
when this ancient practice began.
Tap water comes from a mountain spring and is purified by sand filters
and ultra violet light. Salad greens, vegetables, herbs, papaya,
jack fruit, rambutan, mango and other varieties of fruit trees and
food are organically grown in the Sanctuary's gardens. Garbage is
separated. and recycled whenever possible. Organic waste from the
kitchen is composted, adding nutrients to the soil. Furnishings
by local craftspeople are almost all made of bamboo. Wastewater
Gardens designed by Dr. Mark Nelson of the Planetary Coral Reef
Foundation treat the septic and grease trap waste water.
The
site plan was designed utilizing the natural contours of the land
to reduce earth moving. Buildings are almost all raised off the
ground for minimal environmental impact. Almost all the building
materials came from the Sidemen area. Bamboo was harvested from
the surrounding mountain forests. Stone and sand were supplied by
the river and nearby quarries; Alang-alang (special grass) for the
roofs came from the high mountain meadows that ring the valley.
Most all of the other materials came from the neighboring island
of Java. Local carpenters and assistants worked creatively alongside
craftsmen from other parts of Bali, Java and Lombok to build SACRED
MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY.
