Just another Bali

Bali, island of paradise that has international reputation, either from its tourism or from two times terrorist attack (Bali Bombing I and II).

And what does Bali have now? Yeah, there's some progress (no more "heavy" traffic congestion) in Jl Legian in certain period (not include office hour, after hour and clubbing hour) 😜 and serious bottleneck in Jl Blambangan-Kuta that must be top priority.

Everybody still visit Kuta beach, although (almost) every beaches in Bali (or even in the universe) are same, sand and sea. Dont forget the massage, tattoo and braid services that you MUST bargained before received it. If you dont want it, just say no, and they'll leave you alone.
Kuta is quite clean, friendly and its very Bali. Some officer clean it every morning, picked all those trashes. Kuta beach is better to visit in dusk or dawn. Many dogs are seen on beach, some moslem visitor may uncomfortable with them.

Hotel: I stayed in Swiss-Belhotel Kuta or Bali Kuta Resort, room is huge! With separated living room and bedroom :)
Coz hotels layout is rectangular, to stay here I recommend you to have pool view rather than outside view (depends on your taste). Img.

Cozy room, but lack of hotel slippers, bad water drainage on shower and unfortunately my room has other guest, ants! I'v told the receptionist and they suggest me to tell it earlier for room service to clean them up. I think the ants has nest near my room or somewhere.

Shopping:
Shopping become core of Bali's tourism (if you know what i mean), and there are many places worth for shopping, like Joger or Krisna. Joger has only three branches and recently it sells common things that you can found in street vendors.

Krisna, most famous shopping destination has many branches surrounding Kuta area! Well done bli, well done.

As far as I observed, most shopping places are visited by local tourist! (Are foreigners wake up late??)

I saw some chinese and middle east tourist but not many.
For those who are in rush catch up flight, I recommend to visit Krisna. They have (almost) all type if souvenir sell in Bali.

Tourist attraction:
Natural landscapes, art performances or educational places, and what else can we see in Bali?
Just sit there, relax, enjoy the view without rushing here and there, annoyingly taking pictures as most tourist did.

GWK is still the same, the head and body of Wisnu still separated from his Garuda and his hand, and people still visited it. Some drivers said that Dreamland beach is the new happening place worth to visit, but had no time, I visited most mainstream tourist visit.

Though I visited Bali more than three times, Bali still not disappointing, Bali never lost it's charm.
