| Bali is an Indonesian
island, the westernmost of the Lesser Sunda Islands, lying between Java
to the west and Lombok to the east. It is one of the country's 33 provinces
with the provincial capital at Denpasar towards the south of the island.
The island is home to the vast majority of Indonesia's small Hindu minority.
It is also the largest tourist destination in the country and is renowned
for its highly developed arts, including dance, sculpture, painting, leather,
metalworking and music.
The word paradise is used
a lot in Bali, and not without reason. The combination of friendly, hospitable
people, a magnificently visual culture infused with spirituality and (not
least) spectacular beaches with great surfing and diving have made Bali
Indonesia's unparalleled number one tourist attraction. Eighty percent
of international visitors to Indonesia visit Bali and Bali alone.
The popularity is not without
its flip sides — once paradisical Kuta has degenerated into a congested
warren of concrete, touts and scammers live on overcharging tourists, and
the island's visibility has even drawn the unwanted attention of terrorists
in 2002 and 2005 — but Bali has managed to retain its magic. Bali is a
wonderful destination with something for everyone, and though heavily traveled,
it is still easy to find some peace and quiet if you like. |

Travel To Bali, Indonesia
by Criss Lee
Traveling to Indonesia is
definitely a trip you will never forget.Plan for a long ride to get there,
as it is a 31 hour flight from New York. Bali is a wonderful area with
an array of fun filled activities to choose from. It is the main tourist
area of Indonesia.
 The
people of Bali are very friendly, and enjoy having visitors come to their
area. Many speak English to interact with tourists. They have chosen to
preserve their culture for all to see rather than change it to become like
other countries. The beaches are a main attraction with surfing being one
of the most popular activities. Others enjoy renting a boat for the day
to relax on the open waters.
Lodging in Bali ranges from
small bungalows to huge fancy hotels, all with basic accommodations to
meet the needs of tourists. The view from your hotel will be wonderful
because of the rich beauty of the area regardless of where you choose to
stay.
The people of Bali are very
artistic. They enjoy painting, weaving, carving, basket making, and other
arts. Children are taught art from a very early age. They often display
their makings to sell to the tourists.
Temples are a main attraction
in Bali. They are called Pura. The temples provide an opportunity to explore
religion and art of the culture. The people of Bali are still very religious,
and it is very important that those visiting the Temples show respect for
their religious beliefs.
Art galleries exhibit creative
and attractive art work to view. Wildlife and nature reserves are popular
in Bali. Many people go to get a glimpse of the very dangerous Komodo Dragon,
a large lizard that is found only in the area and is extinct. The rare
Java tiger is also displayed.
There are more than 400 volcanoes
in Indonesia, 128 are still active. They offer a historical view of this
natural creation to observe. Botanic Gardens are also a very popular attraction.
Displaying flora and fauna as well as promoting conservation, people are
drawn to the beauty of such attractions.
While Indonesia is a beautiful
and serene place to visit, it is strongly advised at this time to be cautious
with such visits due to the possibility of terrorist attacks. If you do
choose to travel to the area do not travel alone and make sure you have
registered with the US Embassy.
