Bali, Indonesia
Bali, a small Indonesian island located between Java and Lombok, attracts many tourists every year thanks to its enchanting landscapes. The pearl of the Indian Ocean, it is the most visited island in the Indonesian archipelago, with its many landscapes of rice terraces, volcanoes and mountains, not to mention its white sandy or volcanic beaches and cliff-lined coves.
Balinese art is unique, and is sure to delight visitors: sculptures, paintings, dances, music, etc. The Balinese are very welcoming! Bali is nicknamed the “Island of the Gods” because of the impressive number of Balinese Hindu places of worship. Specific to Bali, this Hinduism is unique because it takes the deities of Indian Hinduism and adds many “local” ones. The ceremonies are a thing of beauty. The Balinese believe in reincarnation. The clothes worn by the Balinese during ceremonies are refined.
Bali is characterized by lush vegetation and verdant landscapes, by seductive shores, by the imposing vestiges of its history, by the charm of its traditions and rituals that mark the life of every Balinese, and by the serenity and peace found here. A sense of the sacred, spontaneous kindness, an exceptionally rich natural environment, exuberant flora and landscapes that reflect the gentle way of life all combine to make the island an enchanting and extremely fascinating place.
