Travel & Leisure - Bali
Bali is often referred to as 'The Heaven on Earth' and rightly so.Bali (a small Island of 140km East-West & 80km North-South) is situated between the Indonesian Islands of Java and Lombok. It is only Indonesian Island with a majority Hindu population (around 93%). Earlier a Agricultural state, in recent times Tourism has been the mainstay of Bali, thanks to its pleasant climate, friendly people and unique places of interest.
Bali Beaches are among the post popular. There are three general Beach areas, which are Kuta, Sanur and Nusa Nua.
These areas have a major European tourist presence. You have Irish Pubs, German, Italian, Dutch, Spanish Hotels in these surroundings. Cold Bintang Beer has been a big hit among western tourists.
However it is to be said that Bali is not just about Beaches and parties.
The Island's lakes are a must for every tourist. Popular Lakes include Lake Buyon, which offers one solitude in this busy world. Another popular lake is the scenic Lake Brotan which has several water sports.
The Island state also has a lot of Hindu mythology (different from the Indian Hindu culture and traditions) and culture attached to it. You can say this is Bali's biggest attraction.
The Balinese temples (especially the Krishna Balaram mandir), Balinese dances & dramas (keep a close on watch on the performer's eyes) that tell you tales on the Ramayana and Mahoborata.
There is also a celebrated Hindu Monkey Temple where one walks through a set of caves. Be warned you might encounter snakes and monkeys en route, though the guides would always call them harmless.
A few other popular caves would include
Gua Gajah (Elephant Cave) popular for its carvings.
Gua Lawah (Bat Cave) that has a host of fruit bots.
Goa Karang Sari (extends over 200 metres hillside) - torchlight processions are held during festive seasons.
Special places to visit would be the Ghandipuri Ashram (Ashram of Bali's way of life), Arma Museam of Arts (rich with Balinese culture), Trunyan (can be visited by Boat) an ancient Bali Age village and Ubud which is a popular Artists colony.
