If you are visiting Bali for the first time, you are likely to be confused by the multitude of places that warrant a visit. We have here, a simplified selection that will enable you to quickly take in the best of this beautiful island, right from its temples to its beaches and wildlife safaris. The hippie town of Ubud is perfect for the artsy folks, food lovers and ones with a thing for culture. It’s lined with museums, cafes and has a lot for curio lovers and shopaholics as well. Other than Ubud, visiting Bali’s temples is a must do too. Those picture perfect pagoda-style places of worship are revered as much for their architecture as for their religious significance. You cannot skip visiting the Mother Temple of Besakih, Pura Ulun Danu Bratan, Taman Ayun Temple and the awe-inducing Tanah Lot Temple. You can also visit Kuta and Jungutbatu, the two major beaches in Bali. Sunrise and early mornings are the best time to go beach hopping in Bali if you wish for some solitary time. Bali Safari and Marine Park is also an interesting option for the lovers of wildlife. Here, you can go on an elephant safari and explore the many wonders of tropical wildlife, with species as fascinating as Sumatran tigers, Komodo dragons, white tigers and more. This one is all the more perfect if you have kids travelling with you.
