Bali - Travel Guide

BaliBali

Many visitors have described Bali as paradise on earth. This small, tropical island is one of a volcanic chain, running along the eastern tip of Java, Indonesia. The Balinese wildlife, exotic flowers, pristine beaches and hundreds of jungle-covered, Hindu temples make it one of the most stunning places to visit.

The Hindu religion, isolated on this island and surrounded by its Muslim neighbours, brings character to the architecture and warmth to the people. Children are adored in Bali, and with many puppet shows, dramas and beach activities organised especially for them in resorts, a holiday in Bali will be enjoyable for everybody.

The scenery, tropical food and lazy boat trips under crimson sunsets also make this a very romantic place. It is understandable why newlyweds would choose to honeymoon in Bali. For those in need of adventure, there is white water rafting, jungle and volcano hiking, diving and opportunities to learn to surf in Bali.

Dance, arts, silver crafts and music all play an important part in this island's culture. You can learn or just watch the dances, which are elegant and sometimes dramatic, or become entranced by the gamelan orchestras with their soulful flutes, chimes and drums.
