Bali is one of the islands of the archipelago that forms Indonesia. But the picturesque nature of its paradise and colorful local traditions have always attracted European travelers.
About the culture and traditions of Indonesia
All Balinese are pantheists, so they believe that in every tree or stream, on the tops of formidable volcanoes and in the ocean depths, countless mythical and magical creatures live, on whose mercy the well-being of the islanders depends. Balinese call their homeland Pulau Devatawhich means "Island of the gods“, They constantly arrange holidays to appease the inhabitants of heaven.
The Balinese year is 210 days. During this short period of time, the local people manage to celebrate more than 200 holidays cheerfully. Temple celebrations are especially popular. There are about 20 thousand religious buildings in Bali. The main shrines are considered to be the virgin forest near the volcano. Gunung Agung, temple of Pura Ulun Danu and Tana Lot, nestled on a lonely rock in the middle of the ocean.
After the festivities, the Balinese perform a shadow theater performance. The dolls are carved from wood so intricately that they seem lacy, and such a colorful and complex action cannot be seen anywhere else. Some can be as tall as a person, while others are very tiny, and each expresses the character of the character, good or evil. The plot is ancient legends, in which the gods and heroes of the epic participate.
What to do in Bali on New Year's Day and what to see?
In Bali, the New Year begins according to the lunar calendar. This is the time when evil forces dominate the world. Terrible figures and masks are walking around the island in absolute silence, illuminated by the light of bonfires and fireworks. Residents believe that no one should go outside on New Year's Eve. Even at home, everyone is forbidden to talk.
Shops and all institutions are closed, and in hotels, usually friendly employees become "dumb" for a day. You can not swim anywhere, in any of the springs and even in the pool - the one who disobeys in the old days was stoned. The islanders believe that on the eve of the New Year, evil spirits can emerge from the ocean and take over the island. They are frightened off by horror masks and explosions of firecrackers.
Holidays in Bali in the New Year will be excellent in terms of entertainment, here for tourists they came up with a New Year's attraction - bungee jumping from a tower. For some reason, it is believed that if the chime of the New Year's chimes catches a person in a jump, then all his wishes will come true. There are so many people who want to achieve happiness in such an unusual, but, in general, simple way that enterprising Balinese equip palm trees on the ocean coast for bungee and lease them.
Bizarre, bright colors of the island, extraordinary beauty of the lagoon, rice fields, and in the distance extinct volcanoes, unusual color and the most transparent water, all this is worth seeing with your own eyes. Take a quick vacation and arrange a holiday for yourself. Plunge into the exotic world with pleasure.
When is the best time to relax in Bali?
Seasons:
- dry
- wet
Both seasons are suitable for visiting attractions and recreation, each tourist will suit one or another, depending on the goals.
A good time to visit Bali is dry season... it begins at the end of April and lasts until mid-October. The second half of October is already beginning to disappoint many tourists with changeable weather. The dry season for recreation is the most visited, the climatic conditions are favorable for not particularly humid air and good weather.
The best months to visit the island are May June... This period (weather conditions) is best tolerated by tourists of any age, stable weather will not let you change your plans, besides, you have time to enjoy your vacation and lie on the beach, which is still empty from tourists from all over the world.
Wet season starts from early November to late April. The weather during this period is humid and hot, humid air is most difficult for people with heart failure to tolerate.
When is the best time to relax in Bali during the wet season? Here it is worth understanding the climatic conditions, for the period from November to April there are not always heavy rains, the wet season is great for holidays. At this time, you can perfectly swim in the sea or breathe in fresh air while sitting on the hotel terrace looking at the sea, sit in a cafe with a cup of coffee and watch the soothing rain. The season is perfect for romantics or newlyweds.
Most often it rains in December and January. The best time to travel during the wet season is February and March... These two months will be ideal for visiting beaches, attractions. The weather is stabilizing, March is usually sunny, and it rains for several days throughout the month. From the side of savings, there is nothing cheaper than holidays for February and March.
Buying a ticket to Bali in March will be the best option for a vacation with a child or the whole family.
The cost of rest in the period from May to October rises significantly, for this period there are no free tours, there is even no point in talking about last minute vouchers, everything is sold out in advance, 2-3 months before the vacation. It is better to book hotels a month before departure to the island on an independent trip, we also buy air tickets.
