Around Bali

     Bali, the fabled "Island of the Gods", has been enchanting visitors for cen- turies with its rich cultural traditions and spectacular panoramas. From lofty, misty enshrouded volcanoes and cool mountain lakes down through terraced rice fields to a golden strand lapped by azure waters, every square inch of Bali offers a fresh and unforgettable image.

     No less enchanting are its people, some 2.7 million souls whose artistry and piety are recognised throughout the world. Balinese Hinduism, a complex fusion of Indian cosmology, Tantric Buddism and homegrown mythology, is the primary faith of Bali's inhabitants, and so deeply woven into the fabric of their daily lives that the line between the spiritual and the material is blurry at best.

     The shoppers among you will find Bali a treasure house of handicrafts and fine works of art. The Balinese are incredibly gifted artists and craftsmen, and their material creations are imbued with the same sense of wonderment with which they regard their universe. Stone and wood carvings, traditional and modern paintings and intricately designed jewelry in gold and silver are readily available in shops and galleries throughout the island.

      As for recreation, there is no short- age of options. Nature walks, horseback riding, diving, surfing, bungy jumping and white water rafting await the ad- venturous here.
