Bali Trip

Hello, Bali~!

Bali is famous for all the nice beaches that have attracted most of the foreigners who came for their water-activity-based vacations. Well, mine wasn't a perfect one as we did not get closer to the water, we got to visit a lot of temples instead. Haha.. Anyways, we had the opportunity to understand thoroughly the lifestyle and culture of the Bali citizens, who are majority believing in Hindu and Malay God. 

...... Yeah, 'eat, pray, love' definitely best describes Bali! =)

So, here I am to summarise my 4D3N trip in Bali as follows:  

1. We have booked the stay in Hard Rock Hotel earlier. However, it was a bit disappointing as nothing was really much special that could worth us to spend RM500 per person for the stay. However, their workers were quite friendly that we felt warm and homey.
Guitar-themed hotel, with daily buffet breakfast provided.

2. Chicken with edible bones - locating along the way from airport to our hotel. Yes, u don't have to doubt about this, the bone is really edible! xD (they even claimed that the bone is rich in protein!)
The original fried chicken & the salted egg flavour.

3. GWK Cultural Park - tourist spot with beautiful panoramic view & Kecak dance performance.

4. Jimbaran Beach - famous tourist spot for its seafood dinner by the beach, while watching the sunset scenery.
Seafood was not satisfactory & a bit pricey.
The grilled corn was nice instead! xD

5. Tegalalang - beautiful rice terrace located at the north of Ubud, Bali.

6. Mount Batur @ Kintamani - claiming as an active volcano that had erupted in 1968, Kintamani is a famous spot for tourists to enjoy the mount scenery while having their buffet lunch (though the food wasn't appetising =X)
  
7. Kopi Luwak Plantation (a.k.a. civet coffee) is where the beans of coffee berries are eaten by the civets & excreted to be processed into coffee beans with better quality.

8. Pura Tirta Empul is a Hindu temple which is famous for its holy water where Hindu Bali people go for purification. (P/S: Hoho, everyone ought to put on their saree before entering! xD)

9. Made's Warung is famous for the local Indonesian food, especially the nasi campur which mixes many stuff in a plate. Well, sate lilit (Indonesia's famous fish satay) is available too!
FYI, Bali is famous for the Bintang beer & Bali Hai beer hehe..

10. Pura Taman Ayun is the royal temple of Mengwi built in 1634 by a King of the Mengwi dynasty.

11. Beratan Lake in Bedugul, Bali is a shallow lake situated at the dock around Ulun Danu Beratan Temple.

12. Babi guling is one of the famous food in Indonesia. This was our favourite food in Bali as the pork was perfectly tender & delicious in different textures! It was served along with the soto soup as well. Yummsss...

13. Kuta beach is clean & nice. The most importantly, it is just locating at a walking distant from our hotel hehehe..
Well, at least we got to visit the beach finally! =D

14. Dulang Kafe nearby the Bali shopping mall is where we found to have nice ambiance, serving mixture of Indonesian and Western food.
We had the curry, oxtail soup, as well as Kahlua here!

15. Reggae Bar is located at Jalan Legian, the most happening road in Bali for its night bars & clubs! Woots.. Bali is undeniably a perfect party place as the alcohols are just too cheap in comparison with Malaysia's one. Nah! We just had to pay around RM3+ for a bottle of beer.. ;P
So, me & Rachel were ready to go wild in Bali! Are u? Huhu...


Lastly, here's the sweet souvenir from the Hard Rock Hotel, Bali
Haha, they have great photographer who taught us to pose cool! x)

Kindly remind that don't overspend till u finish all the rupiahs as u have to pay IDR150,000 for the airport tax upon departure from Bali. Hehe, play hard, play smart & spend smart ya! xP




CHEERS!
