Culture

Gunung Agung
This sacred landmark is Bali's highest mountain. Hindus believe it is the seat of Shiva  and the center of the universe and the system of world harmony. This idea impacts on many aspects of Balinese life, even the layout of a bedroom - the bed-head always faces the mountain, with the sleeper's feet pointing in the opposite direction.

Highlights

Denpasar
This is Bali’s capital city. Head to Jalan Gajah Mada for shops, banks and restaurants and make a morning trip to the central market, Pasar Badung, to experience the bustle, the colour, and the smells.

Puputan Square
This square in Denpasar is named after the 1906 'fight to the death' of the rajas against the Dutch militia. It features a large statue of a four-faced Hindu god that blesses each direction.

Kuta
This beach resort was embraced by surfers in the 1960s, and boasts a noisy nightlife scene centred around bars and discos. If swimming here, beware of the undertow.

Jimbaran
This once sleepy village has become one of the island’s best resorts, and is famous for its spectacular sunsets.

Nusa Dua
Located on the east coast of the Bukit peninsula, this resort's white-sand beaches and clear waters are perfect for watersports.

Sanur
Just south-east of Denpasar, this is a popular tourist spot where the first modern hotel, the 10-storey Bali Beach, was built in the 1960s. The beach is pleasant, but the sea inside the reef is only deep enough for swimming at high tide.

Besakih
This is Bali's holiest temple, on the slopes of Gunung Agung.

Tanah Lot
This temple sits on a rock in the sea off Bali's west coast.

Jatiluwih
A charming village with a fantastic view of rice terraces.

Kintamani
This is the starting point for ascents to the volcano Gunung Batur.

Beaches

Bali boasts white-sand beaches and clear waters.

Museums

Bali Museum
Located in Denpasar's Puputan Square, this museum displays the island’s heritage from prehistoric times to the early 20th century. Look out for the jewelled 15th-century examples of the kris, and the model of a Balinese cremation ceremony.

Le Mayeur Museum
This museum was the home of a Belgian artist who came to Bali in 1932 and stayed. His paintings cover the walls, many of them celebrating the beauty of Balinese women, including the legong dancer Ni Pollok who became his wife.
