Bali, Indonesia remains a top tourist spot in South East Asia with its combination of hospitable people, magnificent visual culture, spectacular beaches with great diving and surfing as well as awesome villas and restaurants. However, Bali has drawn unwanted attention of terrorism between '02 - '05, with more than one bombing incident. Can it still retain its magic and remain a paradise?
Stayed in a bungalow villa at the Biyukukung Spa Resort in Ubud - great experience!

One of the things I disliked about Bali are the continuous stretchesof shattered pavements that are disastrous for walking.
Even shops are making use of the situation for their creative marketing!
