â€Study nature, Love nature and stay close to nature. It will never fail you††FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT â€If people think that nature is their friend, then they sure don't need an enemy††KURT VONNEGUT After having read both the quotes above, one might feel that Frank Lloyd Wright was a Nature lover and Kurt Vonnegut wasn’t so, right? Well, one thing that can be concluded for sure is that both these great men were good observers. Both these men have observed, understood and accepted Mother Nature so well that they were able to describe the real nature of Nature itself!! Love it or hate it, Nature is the art of God and the only way to command nature is to obey it!! For Nature lovers!! Bali, one of the islands in Indonesia has the right blend of Nature’s extremes. A Volcano which can cause a disaster of great magnitude and yet this volcano called Batur is Bali’s most famous tourist attraction! It is an active volcano which has had a number of small eruptions every now and then. It is an absolutely spectacular sight for those adventure enthusiasts to trek along these volcanic mountains. The geographical topology of this island is mostly hilly. Travelers around the world who would have visited the hilly regions would have enjoyed the sight of tea and coffee plantations. For a first timer in Bali though, it would be quite a surprising and an amazing sight to see Rice plantations on the hilly slopes. These are called the â€Rice Terrace’ in this part of the world. These hilly lands are formed into multiple terraces, which give it a step like appearance. Renowned to be one of the exotic locations in the world, Bali offers wide range of outdoor activities. For someone who loves adventurous activities, Bali is the place to visit! There are quite a few trek spots, bike trails, dive spots and excellent beaches for surfing. For someone who prefers a peaceful vacation, Bali has quiet retreats where one can learn yoga and practice meditation. Another unique feature that distinguishes Bali from rest of Indonesia is that unlike most of the Muslim majority Indonesia, more than ninety percent of people here practice Balinese Hinduism. The religious values are highly valued in this part of the country. There are quite a few temples, which were built thousands of years ago. It is a highly spiritual country and people here related every living and non living being to be god’s creation. Apart from Hinduism, there are also people who belong to the Buddhist group. Though belonging to different religions, it is an overwhelming sight to see the locals embracing each other with respect. Be it a fun filled vacation or a peaceful break away from busy commercial life, Bali has it all to satisfy both!!
