This updated and revised edition of the bestselling Tuttle Bali guide gives the latest information on what to do and see on the world's most famous tropical island. Bali is one of the few places on earth where an ancient civilization still thrives in the modern world. And the island has so much to offer visitors: ancient temples, elaborate ritual celebrations, spellbinding music and theater traditions, exquisite arts and crafts, gorgeous beaches, bustling markets, delicious food, and much more.
This is the most complete guide to Bali ever published. Lively articles by world-class experts present every aspect of the island's history and culture, along with detailed descriptions of all the sights, illustrated with maps and photos. Essays on the arts, dances and rituals explain the meaning of these traditions in clear terms and give the reader a real understanding of what it means to be Balinese. Personal recommendations from experienced authors tell you where to stay and eat, what to see and do, and how to get the best deals.
An informative section at the end of the book gives important travel and etiquette tips, transportation notes, a language primer, a list of further readings, and a glossary. A helpful index of all places and topics covered in this guide is also included.
