True, beaches, surf breaks, dive sites and resorts of all sorts abound in Bali, but it is the essence of Bali that makes this destination much more than a successful mix of sun and fun.
The cliché of kind and smiling Balinese may seem obvious, but the truth is that the islanders are indeed as generous and affable as they come.
The island’s rich and diverse culture is expressed at every level, from the refined and ubiquitous flower petal offerings to the festive attire of those who participate in temple ceremonies to the almost otherworldly music and dances performed throughout the island.
There are many reasons to discover this wonderful island.
