Denpasar is the capital and most populous city of Bali.

The vast majority of the Balinese people are Hindu so there are a significant

number of temples on the island. Temple or Pura in

Indonesian is the place for worship, and the biggest,

most important and holiest temple in Bali is the Mother

Temple of Besakih.

Bali has a tropical climate all year with average

temperature of 31 degrees Celsius and two different

seasons. Dry season

is between May and September with high

humidity and wet season is between October and April

with low humidity. From June to August, the weather is usually nice, breezy and

cool.

The main language is Indonesia, however being one of the most favourite holiday destinations in the

world, not only many people speak English but also other foreign languages such as

Balinese people celebrate their dead and their living just the same. From the moment a human being formed inside

the womb, to the day they passed away, Balinese held numerous ceremonies to cherish the life of their kin, as a part of bigger ceremony called ‘manusa yadnya’ . One of

those ceremonies is Tutug Kambuhan.

Held after a baby enters his 42 days of life, Tutug Kambuhan is a cleansing ritual to remove the baby and his/her mother

from all impurities, physically and spiritually. This ritual is mandatory to be done by Balinese Hindu as it will allows the

baby to enter the and pray in sacred area of Pura (Balinese temple).

starting point for those who wish to explore all the other tourism destinations around the island.

Peaceful coastline becomes main attractions of Sanur, and somehow it successfully maintains the atmosphere of serenity even though it is often packed with both local and international tourists. The beaches are thin and

protected by the reef and breakwaters, making them really swimmable and good spot for family vacation. There are several magnificent beaches around Sanur, with the most well-known being Mertasari beach and Matahari Terbit beach. The first one, Mertasari, is considered as one of the most beautiful

beaches in Bali, with white sandy beach, waveless sea, and pavilions built on a rocky path which leads to the sea. These pavilions are the signature of Sanur beaches rarely seen in other shorelines across the island, and a great place to get soaked in the breezy seaside atmosphere.

One of the most favorite activities in Sanur is cycling, so don’t be surprised to see bikes strolling across the same narrow path beside the beach used by the pedestrians. Don’t worry, as most of them drive safely, just be ready to sway aside when you hear a bell chime from passing bikes.

What makes this site unique is how it was carved in two sides of cliffs, facing each other and divided by the flow of Pakerisan River below. Candi Tebing is hidden from plain sight for such a long time.

The stone gate leading to the temple is actually known by the locals, but they never thought it would lead to this grand discovery, until a Dutch researcher named Krijsman decided to dig into the rest of the sites altogether. If you happen to visit the site, expect to meet some researchers there as they still working to study the remains and determine its origins.

History proofs the existence of Goa Garba since back in 12th century,

where the legendary king Jaya Pangus still rules the island. Nowadays, it becomes one of officially preserved ancient site in Bali, occasionally visited by tourist curious of its origin, and locals who wish to meditate and gain some sort of spiritual enlightenment.

"Tucked deep down a steep valley, Goa Garba is a sacred place once used by the might warrior Kebo Iwa as a solitary meditation spot."

Point of hermitaGe

Located at Pejeng village, Tampaksiring, Goa Garba is a small niche carved on the side of Pakerisan River, and can only be accessed through a hole on the top of stairs beyond an ancient stone gate. On your way to Goa Garba, you might notice a set of footprint. This believed to be the feet of Kebo Iwa, the mighty Balinese warrior, who’s said to be the first one to discover the spot and use it to meditate and gain spiritual power. The immense mystical aura of the place is amplified by the lush and calm surrounding nature, makes it one of the recommended place to visit for adventurer who wish their holiday away from glimmering city light and bustling atmosphere.
