BEDUGUL Bedugul is a small lakeside village over looking Lake Bratan. The weather is cold since it is located in the highland. The mountain village of Bedugul by Lake Bratan is on the main road connecting north and south Bali and is an interesting place to stay for a night or two, especially if you are a golfer as the renowned 18-hole Handara Golf Course is located here.
LAKE BERATAN Motorboats and canoes are available in Lake Bratan, as well as parasailing and water skiing. Across the lake, there are some caves used by the Japanese in World War II. From those caves, there is a path to the top of Mount Catur, which has an ancient temple at the top.
JIMBARAN Take a walk along the pristine sand or dine at one of the beachside seafood restaurants. Perhaps a sunset drink - Jimbaran is known for its spectacular sunsets. An offshore reef offers protection from the wave action, providing excellent swimming water. On the western site of the Bukit (hill), Bali’s southern Peninsula. Lays the once sleepy fishing village of Jimbaran, now the site of the Intercontinental, Four Seasons and the Ritz-Carlton
SEMINYAK Little by little Seminyak is coming into its own as an area to be reckoned with. The restaurant scene in Seminyak is vibrant and eclectic while the area's nightclubs have set the pace in Bali for some time now - this is where you go after you're done all you can in Kuta. Perhaps for this reason the area has become a magnet for designers, both local and international, and many small hotels and villas have been built in Seminyak reflecting the cosmopolitan nature of the area Canggu is more or less an extension of Seminyak, as some folks - either try to escape the crowds or just came late to the party and found Seminyak a bit too expensive - have continued the Kuta sprawl north
celuk and singapadu Located near Batubulan, are the center of Balinese goldsmiths and silversmiths. The jewelry is exported worldwide. The village of Celuk is now lined with galleries all selling silver ware. They are typical Balinese work using granulation and a process of attaching gold to the surface of silver. Today the industry is very sophisticated and includes everything from classical pieces to modem designs that you would not even guess were made in Bali.
BATUBULAN Most of the stone sculptures in Bali are from this area. is well-known for its stone carvings also famous for the Barong dance which is performed daily here. The dance represents the never-ending battle between good and evil. The development of these groups parallels to tourism in Bali, but even so the Batubulan barong troupes are relatively young.
kintamani Perched on the rim of a vast crater, overlooking the Lake Batur and its bubbling hot springs, Kintamani truly offers stunning scenery Located about 1.500m above sea level, the beautiful Kintamani area has a cool climate which is suitable to grow certain fruits and vegetables.. Kintamani borders on Batur/ Kalanganyar Village. There is a market up the road to the north, which is busy every three days on Hari Paseh. It is interesting to see all kinds of products from surrounding mountain farms such as vegetables, oranges and corns. Kintamani is also well-known for its big furry Kintamani puppies. Its physical and personality characteristics make it a popular pet for the Balinese.
