Bali

ADVENTURE, CULTURE AND RELAXATION

  • Bali’s sense of quietude, the Hindu culture and the natural splendour of the interior keeps it fascinating.

Not to be missed

  • Hidden Temple Walk
  • Ubud
  • Gunung Kawi offers treasure hunters and sculpture lovers a veritable treat.
  • If rice is the food of mystery, walk on! Gunung Kawi lives by this ideology, offering treasure hunters and sculpture seekers a veritable treat. Take a hat, brace yourself for a good climb down and up 300 steps, and begin your trek. The lush green paddy fields offer a stunning view of the landscape and trick you into what is in store.
  • Walk down the steps to find yourself on the banks of a river. And there, hidden inside rock cut cliffs are 8 m high, breath-taking temples – ten rock cut shrines that have withstood the onslaught of time for over 1,000 years. The temples or Candi as they are called appear as burial towers, honouring the Balinese royalty. Now that the shrines are in full view, try guessing which Candi is dedicated to which member of the royalty!
  • Many surmises have led people to believe that the monuments on the eastern bank belong to King Udayana, Queen Mahendradatta and their three sons. The four other candi on the western side are in honour of the King’s son, Anak Wungsu and his concubines. The case of the unaccounted 10th Candi is still open to the wildest guesses! Some say it belongs to a royal minister. Mull on these facts for a while, before you begin your return journey – the climb up the 300 odd steps. And don’t forget to treat yourself to refreshing tender coconut on the way.
  • Golf Asia
  • Given its near cult status in Asia, there is absolutely no shortage of designer courses set against some of the most dazzling natural backdrops.
  • Indonesia - Island getaways like Bintan & Bali make golfing in Indonesia an exciting prospect. Oceans, mountains and rice fields ring Bali’s courses. The Bali National, Bali Nirwana Golf Club and the New Kuta Golf Club are all A-listers on the Asian scene. Bintan packs in Spa and beach days along with top line courses designed by Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman and Ian Baker-Finch.

Must Dos

  • Visit the white sand beaches of Padang-Padang, Balangan and Uluwatu to the South.

  • Swim with Sunfish and Manta Rays during the migration season in Nusa Penida.
  • Dwell into the site of unusual underwater sculptures at the pristine beaches of Lombok and Gili Meno.
