Couples in their honeymoon need some alone time to get lost in each other. What better way to do that than with a Bali honeymoon? It is an ideal locale for honeymooning couples with breathtaking scenery where one feels close to nature. There are packages for just about everyone’s taste, starting from the private villas to the luxurious resorts.
The locals are some of the most friendly people you will ever come across on a trip in a foreign land. The traditional clothing is very colourful and available for rent for tourists. The Balinese people form a very vibrant society.
Ubud is the Balinese culture capital. It is a city of temples. The most popular is the Pura Taman Saraswati temple in the southern most part of the city. The temples in Bali are dedicated to one or more of their many Gods.
South of the city is a nature preserve forest that is home to the Balinese macaques. Hidden in the middle of this forest is the most curious temple. It is the temple of the dead, Pura Dalem Agung. Then, there is the more animated Balinese market where hand-made products are sold.
The Balinese dance festivals are must see events. They are very colorful events with dynamic choreography. The dancers usually enact a story from their literature like the Ramayana and most performances include a king, demon or god.
In the town of Bedulu just outside Ubud are the elephant caves. They were excavated in the 1920s and are more than seven hundred years old. In Mengwi, is the beautiful temple with 17th century carvings.
On the outskirts of these tourist hubs is the rural country which will offer a wealth of knowledge about the Balinese people. It is here that we can truly understand what it means to be Balinese.
The locals are adept at flying kites. It can make a very memorable experience. Another specialty of the island is coconut water. It is famous for its cooling properties. These are some of the must-have experiences in the beautiful island of Bali.
