The island of Bali, 'Island of the Gods', is a magical island and peopled by the friendly Balinese. Bali is an island steeped in legends and mystical tales and set amid the 17,508 islands which makeup the archipelago Republic of Indonesia. Bali is Indonesia's most popular tourist travel destination, known throughout the world as a paradise isle with its story-book setting of sun-drenched beaches, rolling surf, rustic villages, fertile plains, sculptured rice terraces and numerous temples. Bali is graced by colorful temple festivals accompanied by sprightly music and dance and watched over by the unseen gods from their dwelling places perched on majestic Gunung Agung (Great Mountain). Bali is located near the eastern-most tip of Java island across the narrow Straits of Bali.Tuesday, 8. January 2008, 14:24:56
Denpasar means ‘by the market’ and is Bali’s only real city. Denpasar is home to Balinese people from all over the island who work in Kuta, so in the late afternoon the roads leading to Denpasar are choked with traffic. For a Javanese person Denpasar is home from home. I’ve been told that there is a real community feeling there and people look after each other. Around 500,000 people live in Denpasar, including Balinese, Javanese and others from around the country. Denpasar is ‘local friendly’ in that rent, food and almost anything else is cheap and you will find food vendors from many parts of Indonesia. Denpasar is not particularly ‘tourist friendly’, traffic system and the lack of obvious tourist facilities mean its is often overlooked by visitors.Saturday, 5. January 2008, 03:17:42
