The Great Guide to Bali

Book excerpt: Second Edition June 6, 2016 Bali is famous the world over. This perfumed island of the gods, its volcanoes wreathed by smoky mists, its green sparkling rice fields cascading down hill sides, the abundance of flowers, food for the gods as they sit in orange brick and grey stone temples, the gentle, jangling sound of brass gongs, the surge of surf against dark rocks above which ancient pagodas gaze over the ocean: Bali is more than an image, it is a sensation, an experience, an awakening. Freshly updated in May 2016, this book brings Bali alive, with 250 high quality colour photographs taken by 45 photographers, six interactive maps with detailed descriptions on more than 120 different places, and five suggested road trips for you to see them all. The greatest Great Guide to Bali yet!
