Problem Associated With Bali
After decades of being one of the most popular tourist destination and one of the most loved
tropical holiday islands, which created a continuous growth in tourists numbers, Bali is under
pressure. Pollution,uncontrolled tourism developments, and traffic are the most
pressing issues.
Pura Besakih is considered the most important of the “kayangan jagat,” the nine directional
temples built to protect the island from evil. The temple complex includes more than 28
structures built on seven ascending terraces.
Mount Batur
While it’s not the highest point on Bali, Mount Batur is situated on one of the island’s most
dramatic landscapes. Climbing to the top of Mount Batur to watch the sunrise is a popular
activity. It’s a relatively easy climb that anyone in reasonable shape can achieve in around
two hours.
Pura Luhur Uluwatu
One of the nine major Hindu temples on the island. Founded in the 11th century, the temple
was built at the edge of a limestone cliff top jutting out over the sea.
Lovina
The largest resort area on the north coast of Bali, Lovina is best known for the black volcanic
sand of its 5-mile beach. Encompassing several small villages, the area is a popular spot for
snorkeling and scuba diving adventures as the northern waters are calmer than those to the
south.
Sanur Beach
Located in the village of Denpasar in southeast Bali, quiet Sanur Beach is a popular
destination for older visitors, which has earned the spot the nickname “Snore Beach. Sanur
has several important historic sites, including the Blanjong Temple, which contains a column
bearing inscriptions that date back to the 9th century.

movement that utilizes the hands, face, and feet. Listen to live Balinese music. Visit a local
festival or celebration like the Balinese New Year, Bali Spirit Festival, Ubud Food Festival,
Bali Art Festival, Bali Kite Festival, or the village temple festival called Odalan. Consider
purchasing wood sculptures, hand stamped and dyed Batik prints, handmade silver jewelry,
weaved goods, or an intricate painting. The Balinese are masters of many crafts.
Lively Religious Scene
The Balinese are spiritual people, predominantly Hindus, and their houses are furnished with
a small temple, at which they pray every day. Temple tours are particularly popular among
tourists, not only for the religious value but also for cultural insights and aesthetic pleasure.
See Rice Terraces
Rice is a staple in Bali and a major part of the Balinese culture. The terraced rice paddies,
surrounded by lush vegetation, are a sight to see throughout the countryside, especially at
first light.

Beyond stunning beaches and magical temples, Bali has virtually every kind of natural
beauty. Glorious mountainous areas with lush greenery, scenic lakes, gorgeous waterfalls,
iconic rice fields, flower gardens, gushing sacred rivers and secret canyons all make up the
island’s landscape.
