Trips to Indonesia and holidays in Bali

Bali is an Indonesian island, located on the western end of the Lesser Sunda Islands archipelago, between Java and Lombok, 8 degrees south of the equator. Bali is one of the thirty-three provinces of the Republic of Indonesia and is part of one of the largest archipelagos in the world. This unique place fascinates travelers with its extraordinary beauty and is one of the most frequently chosen travel destinations by today's globetrotters.

Thanks to excellent air connections and a favorable equatorial climate, the tourist season in Bali lasts all year round. In the capital of Bali, Denpasar, there is an airport that offers direct connections to many European, Asian and Middle Eastern metropolises. Airlines such as Qatar Airways and Emirates enable travelers from Poland and Europe to reach this extraordinary corner of the earth quickly and at affordable prices.

This paradise place, known as the "Island of the Gods", is the perfect place for an unforgettable trip.

Historic temples and rich history

The Republic of Indonesia has a very rich history. Due to the influence of various cultures and religions, there are many ethnic and linguistic groups here. Mainly Balinese people live in Bali and they believe in the so-called Balinese Hinduism, there are slightly fewer Muslims here. The island was under the influence of neighboring Java for many years and only in the 1949th century did it become politically independent. During the colonial era, the Dutch took control of it and later it was occupied by the Japanese. In XNUMX it became part of Indonesia. There are many historic temples left from the old days that are worth seeing while vacationing in Bali.

One of the most important and popular attractions in Bali is Pura Ulun Danu Bratan. This Hindu temple was built in the 17th century on the shore of Lake Bratan and is located in the heart of a unique garden. Another fascinating place is Ubud, called the City of Ghosts. The inhabitants of this town full of folklore believe that everything has its spiritual guardian, even a house or a car. Ubud is considered the cultural capital of Bali. Here you can see works of local artists and buildings decorated with original sculptures. In its center there is the Saraswati Temple, a temple surrounded by water, the walls of which are covered with paintings depicting monsters intended to ward off demons.

Stunning nature and attractions for families

Bali – a base for exploring other islands

Bali is an excellent starting point for exploring other islands in Indonesia. For travelers who value diversity and want to experience different cultures and climates, there is a fascinating option to combine a stay in Bali with visiting some unique places.

You should consider combining a trip to Bali with a visit to the monumental temples of Borobudur and Prambanan in Java and the possibility of meeting dragons on Komodo Island. In addition, you can also relax in nearby Lombok, which is significantly different from the crowds and commercialization of Bali. Lombok is a quiet island, less populated, offering beautiful nature, charming beaches and the opportunity to relax in harmony with nature. However, you will not find as many Hindu temples here as in Bali, because the dominant religion of the inhabitants of Lombok is Islam.

If you're planning a longer stay in Indonesia, perhaps three or four weeks, consider interesting options such as a yacht cruise around the pristine Raja Ampat archipelago or a luxurious stay in a unique hotel on the island of Sumba. Bali can be the perfect base from which to explore these fascinating destinations and experience the diversity that Indonesia has to offer.
