Known as the "Island of the Gods," it's not difficult to see why the Gods would want to set up shop in Bali. With a beautifully diverse landscape of hills, mountains, coastlines, beaches, vibrant rice fields and volcanic hillsides, you'll easily go into sensory overload.

Bali is home to 4 million people who all hold true to a deeply spiritual and unique culture. With champion surfing, world class resorts and challenging hiking trails, this Indonesian island accommodates travelers from every walk of life. It's often called, "paradise on earth, " and no one disagrees.

Sights

There's never going to be enough time to see every wonder Bali has to offer, but this list is a start. When you see an impromptu temple procession happening, stop and watch it. It may seem like a traffic inconvenience, but people carrying pyramids of fruit, parasols while wearing furred masks is surely a sight unique to Bali. Did you miss it this time?

You'll learn everything you ever wanted to know abut Bali.

The island is steeped in history surrounding the vibrant rice fields found all around Bali. Visit the Jatiluwih fields to see ancient strains of rice growing from vibrant green land. Tour the fields and see them as the locals do - like a work of art.

For the more laid back crowd, the beaches in South Bali are not to be missed. Limestone cliffs meet white sand and waves nestled in a lush, tropical setting is the stuff vacations are made of. The areas of Kuta, Seminyak, Canggu, and Balangan Beach are lined with hotels, shops, restaurants, and other amenities for travelers interested in staying near the beach. Many budget travelers choose to stay in Canggu due to lower prices and a relaxed vibe. For more details, see this great guide to everything in Canggu or our guide to the best hostels in Canggu.

Bali should definitely be on every foodie's bucket list. Beware, however, the spices in Indonesia are not for the weak-hearted. Take your time and caution when diving into new dishes.

While the fancy places probably look more enticing, the smaller local joints usually have better food at better prices. Some dishes to look for include nasi goreng (fried rice), nasi campur (steamed rice with veggies and meat) and mie goreng (fried noodles)
