Bali
The 'Island of the Gods' is aptly named. Fringed with perfect beaches and colourful coral reefs is a land of stunning natural beauty and friendly people, proud of their ancient culture and traditions. Relax at one of the sumptuous resorts that line the coast, but don't miss the vibrant cultural centres inland, such as Ubud, a town of art galleries and studios selling the exquisite paintings and handicrafts that will remind you of a wonderful holiday.
Bali highlights
- The world-renowned arts centre of Ubud, with a host of galleries and must-see museums, and daily cultural performances.
- Bali Bird Park, home to hundreds of rare and exotic species including bumblebee-sized hummingbirds.
- Maduwe Karang Temple - even in this land of ornately carved temples, this stands alone, decorated with characters from Balinese epics.
- Goa Gajah (the Elephant Cave), one of the island's most mystical and mysterious sites, a monastery carved into the hillside in the 11th Century.
- The peaceful beaches and rolling surf of Ulu Watu.
