Perama Tour News :: Narmada Palace, Lombok's fountain of youth

Located in Lembuah village, West Lombok, about 10km east of Mataram. As one of the remains of the former glories of the Balinese kingdom’s Karang Asem in Lombok, the Narmada Park attracts many tourists, both domestic and foreign. The park itself is the main attraction for tourists, having extensive gardens with numberous of pools with each it’s own history. Narmada Park has an area of approximately 2 HA.

The park was built in 1727 by King of Mataram Lombok, Anak Agung Ngurah Karangasem, as an alternative venue for the Pakelem ceremony that was held every fifth full moon of the Balinese calendar, the Caka year (October-November).

The actual ceremony was conducted in Lake Segara Anak on Mount Rinjani. It is said that the King was too old to perform the ceremony on the mountain with an elevation of 3.726m, the King then ordered to build an area that resembles Mount Rinjani in the middle of downtown to hold the ceremony.

Aside from being a place of ceremony, Narmada Park is also used as a resting place for the royal family during the dry season, that features a large pool which was the place for the king and
queen to swim. The water that fills the pond has also become attraction to some, because it is said that the water is from the fountain of youth. It is believed that when you wash your face with the water it will make wrinkles disappear. Research indicates that the water from the fountain in the park has a high mineral content which makes it good for the skin. The unique part of this park is that the water from its fountain never runs empty even when a large amount is taken each day.

In addition to having a garden and pool, this park has other areas that are worth a visit, of which one is Kelasa Temple. It is named after a mountain in India, called Mount Kesala. The Kelasa Temple is one of the oldest temples in Lombok.

There is also a place called Pentirtaan Hall, named after the Sanskrit word ‘tirta’ meaning water. Bellow this hall is a where three streams of water from Mount Rinjani meet (Suranadi,Lingsar,and Narmada). From the fountain within this hall, water flows to the pools throughout the park. When visiting Lombok make sure to visit Narmada Park and it’s fountain of youth.
