Bali
-
one
of the 17,500 islands of the Indonesian archipelago belongs to the most famous
isles of the world. With its 5,600, square kilometre Bali is only a dust
particle on the map of the world, but it offers an indescribable variety. The
life of the Balinese people is formed by the “Agama Hindu Dharma” religion,
a fusion from Buddhism and Hinduism. Sacrificing, temple celebrations, religious
dances and cremations belong here to the everyday life. Spectacular green rice
terraces, volcanoes, mountain lakes, tropical jungles and fantastic beaches
built the grandiose landscape. Also for artists and art-interested people is
Bali a true paradise. Painters and musicians from all over the world established
themselves here. Independent of the mass tourism the Balinese people
keeps their singular culture and tradition and resisted to the foreign
influences.
