Also know Montserrat is approx. one hour from Barcelona so coordinate the train or taxi etc to and from”

“This was a really great experience. There was a religious festival on the day I went which meant I was unable to go to the temple itself but still I was able to walk around and seeing everyone in their posh gear and carrying their baskets of food and worshipping was quite surreal. I was still able to get some really good views and took lots of pictures. The monkeys really finished it off for me, in a good way, they are everywhere along the pathways and I’d thoroughly recommend visiting Uluwatu temple as well as the place itself. Just keep a real tight grip of your phone is all…”
