Sun-kissed beaches, lush tropical jungles, and sumptuous street food. There are more than a few<br />

reasons why the Indonesian island of Bali is one of the world’s premier tourist destinations. These<br />

are the top five things to do when you reach “The Island of the Gods”.<br />

Visit a Temple<br />

You don’t need to travel far in Bali to find a pura, or Balinese<br />

temple. With more than 10,000 on the island, you might just<br />

find one all to yourself. Ranging from the towering Lempuyang<br />

Temple to those hidden in the jungle like the remote Luhur<br />

Batukaru, they’re an incredible collection of sites.<br />

Most of the temples on the island are places of worship for<br />

followers of Balinese Hinduism and the temples are adorned<br />

with ancient carvings and statues. Wandering around a<br />

peaceful temple is the perfect antidote to an otherwise busy<br />

day of adventuring.<br />

Go Wine Tasting<br />

You might not believe it, but Bali is home to one of the<br />

most exciting vineyards in the world. Sababay Winery create<br />

exquisite wines from the fertile soils found on Bali’s southeast<br />

coast – and, better yet, guests are invited to try them out in<br />

their purpose-built winery garden.<br />

Sababay Winery offers the only winery tours on the island,<br />

where you can learn all about the wine-making process before<br />

pairing a glass or two with an authentic Indonesian meal. The<br />

relaxed and family-friendly winery is the perfect place to<br />

spend an afternoon with the people you care about the most.<br />
