Bali Relaxation

by william_navigator - last update: Apr 16, 2006

Bali Paradise

1 Part Beach;2 Parts Drink;1 Part Sunset; Mix well
When you plan your vacation here try and reserve the time around sunset for relaxing at the beach or poolside or on a balcony. After a day of sightseeing in Ubud, dodging monkeys or shopping, etc.; your body needs time to collect itself. There is nothing like chilling, have a cocktail or two, listening to the waves and letting the tension flow out of your body.

Differences

Bali is a part of Indonesia but not like indonesia. Bali is predominantly Hindu while the rest of Indonesia is Muslim. As a result Bali is more laid back than the rest of Indonesia and has a developed cultural scene. This includes art, dance, sculpture, painting, leather, woodworking, metalworking, and music.

I would think the Balinese, if they had a choice, would prefer to move their island out into the middle of the pacific somewhere rather than where they are now. You only have to recall the bombings by the Islamist group Jemaah Islamiyah of 2002 and 2005 to come up with that supposition.

Pros:"Friendly people; exotic; zen"
Cons:"It's a part of Indonesia and all that comes with that..."
In A Nutshell:"As far as uniqueness, development, things to do: Place Bali somewhere between Tahiti and Phuket"
