One of the most famous tourist spots in Badung Regency, probably due to its unusual beauty, Pura Taman Ayun literally means 'beautiful garden'.

These were originally built for the king's ancestral worshiping rituals. +62 361 23 5600 (Tourist Information) www.balitourismboard.org/taman- Jalan Ayodya, Mengwi, Badung ayun-temple.html Tanah Lot Temple "Temple on a Sea Cliff" Temples abound the shores of Bali but Tanah Lot Temple (Pura Tanah Lot) appears to be like it has come straight out of a dream. Located on a piece of rock jutting out from the sea, it is one of only seven sea temples in Bali. It is dedicated to the sea god Baruna and believed to be the brainchild of historic traveler and religious figure, Danghyang Nirartha. This temple is a by kolibri5 fine specimen of medieval sculptural art, carved out of sea rock sometime in the 16th Century. A variety of plants and creepers grow on the rock, partially covering the quaint stone shrines, stairways and columns, while powerful waves lash against the cliff. The path connecting the mainland to the temple is dotted with souvenir shops, and performing arts and kite flying festivals are frequently held here. Visitors are not allowed access during high tide. www.tanahlot.id/index.php/temple-detail/1/Tanah-Lot- Tanah Lot, Tabanan Temple.html Tanah Lot "Scenic Temple" This geologic formation off the southern coast of Bali ranks among the most iconic attractions in Indonesia. While the rock face is itself quite scenic and serene, what makes Tanah Lot so special is the island temple that it famously houses. Pura Tanah Lot is an eye-catching pilgrimage temple rumored to date back as far as the 16th century, when a traveling by CEphoto, Uwe Aranas religious figure by the name of Danghyang Nirartha declared the rock a holy place. As can be expected by its location, the temple mainly honors Hindu sea god Dewa Baruna.

This is the temple complex of Pura Besakih, a set of tapering stone monuments that stand on terraced steps amid a wondrously natural landscape. Six levels trace the delicately sloped mountain, such that the ancient complex by CEphoto, Uwe Aranas unfolds in a stunningly artistic incline – symbolic of a gradual spiritual journey that heightens as you reach closer to the mountain's peak. A candi bentar, or a split gateway marks its sacred entrance, followed by several other gateways that reveal hidden courtyards. Of all the shrines that grace the mountain, the Pura Penataran Agung is considered the largest and the holiest. Dating back to prehistoric times, this sacred maze- like complex was built on a previously ordained holy site, and was christened 'Basuki', after the dragon deity 'Naga Besukian', who was believed to live on the volcanic mountain. From the base of the mountain, the grandeur of this stellar mountain shrine cannot be escaped, and it is further brought alive by the seventy-odd festivals and ceremonies held here each year. +62 361 23 5600 (Tourist Information) Jalan Raya Besakih, Mount Agung, Besakih UNIRSE A NOSOTROS A: cityseeker.com Condiciones generales | POLíTICA DE PRIVACIDAD | API | PóNGASE EN CONTACTO CON NOSOTROS | Derechos de autor 2021 CITYSEEKER Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

  • A Walk on the Wild Side
    SCAPES Island Trail your chauffeur; when asked to overtake, he regards you with bewildered incomprehension: “Overtake?” Balinese shiftlessness and cerebral inertia exasperate, particularly the anguished Japanese management with their brisk exactitude at newly-launched Hoshinoya. All that invigorates Bali is the ‘Chinese circus’. Certain resort lobbies, Ricky Utomo of the Bvlgari Resort chuckles, “are like a midnight sale” pulsating with Chinese tourists in voluble haberdashery, high-heeled, almost reeling into lotus ponds they hazard selfies on. The Bvlgari, whose imperious walls and august prices discourage the Chinese, say they had to terminate afternoon tea packages (another Balinese phenomenon) — can’t have Chinese tourists assail their precipiced parapets for selfies. The Chinese wed in Bali. Indians honeymoon there. That said, the isle inspires little romance. In the Viceroy’s gazebo, overlooking Ubud’s verdure, a honeymooning Indian girl, exuding from her décolleté, contuses her anatomy à la Bollywood starlet, but her husband keeps romancing his iPhone while a Chinese man bandies a soft toy to entertain his wife who shuts tight her eyes in disdain as Mum watches on in wonderment. When untoward circumstances remove us to remote and neglected West Bali National Park, where alone on the island you spot deer, two varieties, extraordinarily drinking salt water, we stumble upon Bali’s most enthralling hideaway and meet Bali’s savviest man, general manager Gusti at Plataran Menjangan (an eco-luxury resort in a destination unbothered about

  • ASEAN Tourism Packages 2019-2020’
    ASEAN TOURISM PACKAGEs ASEAN TOURISM MALAYSIA, MINISTRy of TOURISM, Arts AND culture, Malaysia ToURISM PACKAGES JAN 2019 2019-2020 Petronas Twin Tower, Malaysia 2 | ASEAN TOURISM PACKAGES Foreword HONOURABLE Datuk Mohamaddin Bin Ketapi Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Malaysia It is with great pleasure that I pen a few words to acknowledge the efforts made to enhance the growth and development of ASEAN tourism through the publication of this online ‘ASEAN Tourism Packages 2019-2020’. ASEAN tourism is heading towards a very exciting period of vast potential development. The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) has projected that Asia Pacific will gain a major market share of new arrivals in tourism – an additional of 331 million beginning 2010 to reach 535 million by 2030. It is noteworthy that the Southeast Asia region is anticipated to grow at a faster rate compared with the global average during this period. Given this promising landscape of tourism, it is critical that ASEAN member nations work together to strengthen the region as one tourism destination. With ASEAN members advancing, enhancing and deepening strategic partnerships with one another, the integration will certainly bring about a more attractive and dynamic tourism industry. Subsequently, these efforts will also bring the peoples of ASEAN closer and lay a firm foundation for a more peaceful, stable and prosperous region. I am confident that given our long history of friendship together, we will advance ASEAN as a special community for tourism in the region to flourish. In this regard, I take the opportunity to thank and congratulate everyone involved in realising the ASEAN Tourism Packages, an important step towards an integrated tourism region.

  • Discover Bali's Best Attractions and Landmarks DAY TOURS and TOURIST SPOTS Take Only Memories, Leave Only Footprints
    Image: hotels.com Discover Bali's best attractions and landmarks DAY TOURS AND TOURIST SPOTS Take only memories, leave only footprints " - Chief Seattle Mount Batur Hiking Bali is known for it beautiful beaches, but the interior has its own appeal. Here you’ll find one of the region’s most active volcanoes, Mt. Batur (Gunung Batur), rising 5,633 feet (1,717 meters) above sea level In the highlands of Kintamani. To best appreciate the Mount Batur experience, sign up for an early-morning trek to the summit. Such excursions typically depart from Ubud at 2am or 3am and arrive at the base of the volcano while it’s still dark. Trekkers then make the 2- hour journey to the top of the volcano using headlamps and the light of the moon, an effort rewarded with amazing sunrise views of Mt. Agung and the surrounding mountains. Since Mt. Batur is an active volcano, you’ll likely also get to experience a very unique breakfast of eggs boiled on the lava-heated rocks. After you’ve made the trip, nearby Lake Batur offers hot springs perfect for relaxing tired muscles. It’s also possible to combine your Mt. Batur sunrise trek with whitewater rafting on the Ayung River or a coffee plantation tour.
