Tropical Holiday in Asia - Indonesia : Villas, Hotels, Restaurants , Crafts Shopping
Bali the most holiday destination in the worlds. More than four thousands years ago, Bali was an emerald green, tropical rain forest covered the island. The first wave of human arrivals from across the seas brought with them techniques for rice cultivation, new languages and new customs. These early immigrants and others who followed over the years helped to create a haven, providing today’s visitors with a wealth of sights and sounds, dances, music, arts and crafts.
The Paradise Island and Holiday Destination
Bali has been described by many different names - “The Hidden Paradise”, “The Last Paradise on Earth”, “Morning of The World”, “Island of God”, and “Island of Thousand Temples”. This Island of Gods is situated approximately on latitude 8° South and longitude 115° East. Bali and the neighboring island of Lombok are the most westerly of the Little Sunda Islands and part of the 13,700 islands that make up Indonesia, the largest archipelago in the world.
The island itself covers an area of 5,632,860 square kilometers, with a volcanic mountain range that stretches from the western tip to the eastern side of the island, with Mountain Agung being the highest peak.
For many centuries, -until today-, Bali has attracted visitors from all over the world. It is so attractive for its colorful ceremonies, natural scenery, and the ever-smiling people. Their colorful religious festivals and ceremonies, the traditional music and dances have been a way of life, and have unwittingly contributed much to the success of tourism here. The Balinese people are predominantly Hindu and their traditional and religious beliefs are as strong today as they ever were.
