Besides beaches, temples and the recently crazed Bali swings, Balinese gates is yet another thing that Bali is famous for. Thanks to social media (yes, again!), taking a photo in front of a Balinese gate has becoming an it-thing. The most famous gate could potentially be Pura Lempuyang with the beautiful Mount Agung in the background, but making...
So, you have seen the famous Bali Swing photos and videos on Facebook and Instagram and you have got this place pinned for your next visit.

There are countless waterfalls in Bali but unless you have one month in Bali, it’s impossible to see them all. If you are in Bali for only around a week or less, it could be hard trying to decide which one to explore. Though there are several waterfalls in and near Ubud worth exploring (think Tukad Cepung Waterfall,...
Did you know that Bali has nine key direction temples? These nine directional temples (called Kayangan Jagat) are the largest and most prominent. They are located at strategic points across Bali and are designed to protect the island and its inhabitants from dark forces. They are located on either rugged high ground or at water edge, where the...
Pura Taman Saraswati Of all the places along the main street of Ubud, there was only one place which I was keen to visit – Pura Taman Saraswati, also known by many as The Ubud Water Palace. ...
What’s Ubud without Tegallalang Rice Terrace? The most famous rice paddyfiled in the whole of Bali, or some may say in South East Asia. If you’ve ever cyber-stalked photos of Ubud on Instagram, chances are you’ve seen photos of the Tegalalang rice terrace. So, when we based ourselves in Ubud during our Bali trip in August, we decided...

Located in Batur village of Kintamani District, this mountain which is only 171m above sea level (although my Suunto watch recorded 1766m), the mountain is relatively easy to hike, making it the most popular mountain in Bali, beating the higher and more challenging...
Bali is a huge island, and it’s not possible to cover the whole island in a short holiday. After spending 3 days in Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan, we decided to base ourselves in Ubud for the remaining two days two nights since it was our first time in Bali, and we are keener to immerse...
Crystal Bay is the most accessible beach in Nusa Penida, being only less than 20 minutes from the harbour. This makes it one of the most visited place in the island. If you were to sign up for any snorkelling or diving tour on Nusa Penida (or even on Nusa Lembongan), this is one of the spots in...
If you are going to visit Nusa Penida, you are probably going to visit Kelingking Beach which is single-handedly the most popular spot in the entire island, but do you know that 40 minutes ride away, there are another two stunning creations of Mother Nature, waiting for you to discover? Since they are in the same western coast...
It’s a no brainer that Kelingking Beach is the most popular place of interest in Nusa Penida. It’s on the bucket list of everyone who is travelling to Nusa Penida, and if you have been stalking instagram, chances are you have seen the photos of this beautiful place everywhere. If Devil’s Tears is the icon of Nusa Lembongan, Kelingking Beach...
Booking accommodation in a hurry is a bad idea. ...
Painted in bright yellow, the Yellow Bridge, is an iconic landmark for both Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan, as it connects the two neighbouring islands. With the bridge being the only route connecting the two islands, you certainly wou'dn’t be able to miss this iconic bridge. But do you know that the Yellow Bridge you see today isn’t...
Nusa Ceningan is a rather small island, and it is pretty easy to explore around on a scooter. The main road goes along the shore passing through several restaurant and bar which guarantee great view of the shallow beach of Nusa Ceningan. ...
Having sacrificed our complimentary hotel breakfast in order to fully utilised our time in exploring Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan, we were feeling hungry as we left Blue Lagoon and Mahana Point. Remembering that we passed by a whole stretch of warungs, cafés and restaurants along the main beach near the Yellow Beach, we decided to stop by whichever was opened...
Cliff jumping seems to be a thing in the Nusa Islands. Every cliff we went seems to be a good spot for cliff jumping and is free of charge. However, there is this one place in Nusa Ceningan which you’ve got to pay for cliff jumping – Mahana Point. Mahana Point The restaurant within The restaurant is built...
BLUE LAGOON... The name itself drawn me to this place, simply because it reminds me of the popular hot spring in Iceland, which photos have always captivate me whenever they pop up on social media. So when I read that there is a Blue Lagoon in Nusa Ceningan, I couldn't resist the temptation of seeing it. ...
Ranging from budget bunk beds to mid-range hotels and luxury resorts, Nusa Lembongan has plenty of accommodation for every type of travellers, and the cutest stay are normally located on the strip of the beach itself. Think infinity pool, beautiful thatch-roofed huts and on-site restaurant and bar overlooking the beach! ...
