The resort was named Kupu Kupu Barong, because of the many beautiful butterflies seen
fluttering from one plant to another around the resort. "Kupu Kupu" means butterfly and
"Barong" means giant, hence the name "Giant Butterfly" or in Indonesian Kupu Kupu Barong.
The resort is perched above the Ayung River, which is not only the largest but also the
longest river in Bali, almost cutting the island in two. It was traditionally the border
dividing the early kingdoms of Mengwi and Gianyar. The nearby villages are home to the
island's many craftmens and artists, establishing this area as Bali's cultural centre.
