Bali - The Island of Gods ( I )


Bali: An Overview

Bali is an island of incredible mystery, beauty, enchantment, culture, hospitality, variety, and serenity; who wouldn't fall under its irresistible spell?


Bali is an Indonesian island located at 8°25′23″S, 115°14′55″E, the western most 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.


Bali's spectacular beaches, volcanoes, lakes, temples, and terraced rice fields -- combined with its deeply artistic roots and its legendary hospitality -- have made it one of the most visited places on earth. Complex irrigation system feed the intricately terraced rice fields and lush tropical vegetation, fills the ravines and valleys and surround the myriad of temples, ancient monuments and holy bathing places that are constant reminders of Bali’s ancient history and its living culture and religion. To the gem of a tropical island add a warm and smiling gentle brown-eye people with a mellow relaxing life-style that flows the demands of an age-old religion and tradition in a colorful rhythm of ceremony, festival, music, art and dance. The religion and culture of Bali are unique in the world, and the Balinese have preserved their traditions in spite of the island's growing tourist industry. While many destinations offer beautiful scenery, few have the variety of Bali, and none has its unique art, culture, and natural hospitality.
