Noch ein Bali Tempel

One of the most popular islands in the long Indonesian arghipelago, Bali lives up to its exotic reputation with active volcanoes, dense jungle, lush rice terraces, stunning beaches, and a rich, ancient culture. Shop, drink, and sunbathe in Kuta; go diving in the coral reefs off the island's east coast; or charter a sailboat from Lombok or Lovina. And, with some 20,000 temples on an island only 87 by 56 miles large, you'll also have lots of opportunities to see the island's spiritual side through these beautifully ornate temples called pura.
