This is a place where Tabanan royal family has two palaces and showcases their tektekan gamelan ensemble of bamboo split-drums with clappers made of wood.

Not a dance but a ritual, the tektekan is performed by men with bells and huge clappers around their necks. The aim is to drive away evil spirits and bring good luck in the form of better harvest. Still unaffected by modernization, Kerambitan is also noted for its beautiful old buildings and two large palaces.
