weather all year round, an oasis of undying culture and quiet
beauty, if so, Bali has it all.
Bali is a beautiful island situated within Indonesian
Archipelago and one of the best tourist destinations in Asia. In
1930th some of the foreign writers and artists arrived in Bali
and stayed on, thoroughly seduced and inspired by the island's
breathtaking physical beauty and cultural complexity. They were
also deeply impressed by the warmth and the hospitality of the
Balinese, and the amazing breadth of artistic expression that
pervaded daily life.
Since 1970th Bali performed his high quality in tourism
industry, and attracted many bona fide tour operators and
airlines companies to bring their clients to enjoy this
enchanting island. The island boast a Bali International
Airport, luxuries 5 star Bali hotels, best built Bali villas, luxury and
typical secluded resorts ad even hundreds of budget hotels.
The development in tourism industry continues in progress for
years, and the visitors of Bali can learn and explore more its
unique places of interest, various typical local cultures, enjoy
the hospitality of the people, as well as other tourist
attractions such as diving, snorkeling, para-gliding, cruising,
rafting and even sports. Besides, Bali Island is also an ideal
place for having MICE (Meeting, Incentive, Convention, and
Exhibition) and honeymoon. Tourism actually has been becoming a
massive industry and the main source of Bali's income.
In October 2002 and again in October 2005 Bali was frightened by
a violence terrorist's attack, the boom blast that devastated
the island of Bali and the international community. More than
200 lives were lost and hundreds more were injured. It need
months for recoveries and the Balinese people is still working
hard to rebuild the image of the island and we look forward to a
brighter and promising future for the Balinese and our tourism
industry.
The Balinese have their own way to respond the terrorist attack
not by physical violence but by peaceful means; performing major
cleansing ceremonies, prayer and hopes, establishing a memorial
for the lost lives, because the Balinese believe that the true
and utmost prayer have a magic power to face up to evil. The
Balinese doctrine Ruwa Bineda tells that all nature is
eternally divided into pairs - high and low, right and left, day
and night, strong and weak, healthy and sick, clean and unclean;
in general: good and evil, life and death. Each illuminates the
other within the scope of creation, and the Balinese ritual
strives always to maintain a middle ground - a harmony between
two poles. So wherever one goes, be a wise man and beware of any
possible dangers and put oneself on guard, because the good and
the bad are everywhere in this world.
All the appropriate efforts has been performed by Indonesian
Government and the Balinese people and also by the world in
order to keep the island peaceful. For the Balinese after
performing major ceremonies, it is now time to move ahead and
leave the incident behind us. Bali Loves Peace is our
motto, peace for everyone, and peace for the world. Many of the
visitors have been proved the peace of the island after the
incident and leaved Bali with a memorable stay.

list for your next holiday destination. Bali is still worth a
visit after the boom tragedy, because the situation is well in
hand now. The easiest way to book your preferred Bali Hotels is
