Travel from Mapalu. Indonesia. Bali Island. Part II

In Bali it is very interesting to visit the monkey forest of Sangeh Monkey Forest. It is relatively close to Ubud, yet away from the more famous Monkey Forest in Ubud - Mandara Tour of Wenara Wana. We picked it for some people and were less popular with tourists, and also because there are guardians with lots of people following your behavior and monkey behavior so there is nothing to scare anyone.

And what, and the monkeys there are enough! The curious creatures who live their own lives, but do not miss the opportunity to pose to the photographer, picking up from those who are curious to harvest (or buy from rangers) a snack, and just jump on them to find something interesting.

Caution, dangling goods / ornaments, as well as the contents of the bag, better put in a closed bag, otherwise you can quickly lose! It's just that they are good and harmless

Spying spirits can be seen everywhere where Bali lives several times a day. Many, if not all, know the art of carrying things on their heads.

Sculptures of various demon spirits are also found everywhere. Even in the big modern supermarket at the entrance people meet here is beauty as tall as few meters.

New Year's Eve dinner at a small cafe in Ubud. We decided to try the various dishes that were sold immediately set. So, he barely rides on the table for 4 people (in the photo, apparently, not everything has been brought)!

It was a very interesting experience, and very good at the same time, which can not but please. It is an excellent choice to instantly try many Balinese dishes, in miniature and not too much, to more accurately determine what you will order further during the trip. I recommend!

After a hard time thinking about New Year's Eve and food. But, back to the darkness of the tropical hotel, in the perfect jungle thinking about devils and gods, what a great help for their statues, suddenly marching in rows here and there near the home of a rich Balinese.

Hotel Rijasa Agung Resort and Villas, where we decided to spend New Year's Eve and New Year's first days, delighted us by the wonderful views of the room, comfort and even luxurious balconies, as well as the magical islands of jungle, flowers, greenery and lights lanterns. Especially remarkable at night.

Grapes, tropical fruits, jacuzzis and woods outside the window - a remarkable New Year appointment!

And before that, you can walk a little further along the tremendous path.

Swimming under the care of the gods on the train, you can even with a glass of something cool, the benefit is there is a shelf and bar stool.

Admire the lamps of the lanterns, disperse gloomily and flash the beautiful flowers.

Look at the winged lion's lion - but do not be afraid of him, tonight he will not attack, but instead, protect.

And you can only think about the high and eternal, sitting near the branching tree. In general, this hotel is great for wandering.

Next we moved to Chandidas (Candidasa) - a small town on the east coast of the island, which consists mostly of one main road, on the sides lining the house, on the beach side more, on the other hand less.

It is not full of tourists, but all that is needed for tourists is available: various accommodations, cafes, places to "walk" (of course, most of this beach) and swim. But swim here - it's more about diving and snorkeling, or hotel pools, because the beaches are quite rocky, but the underwater world is beautiful.

Not far away, within 20-30 minutes drive, there is a very popular White Sand Beach, with, as they say, beautiful white sand, just perfect for swimming. But we do not go there :)

In general, Candidasa is perfect for a relaxing holiday without the advantages of people, noise, but also places of interest within walking distance, beautiful as a sort of base, from which also makes raids on bikes along the east coast and the surrounding area, and would be ideal for divers and swimmer snorkel. many dive centers exist, and various dive sites near the famous east coast.

However there is a beautiful view of mountains, sea and traditional boats, which, by the way, are good, you can ride. In the vicinity where you can see pretty much the Great.

Here it is, this great and terrible volcano:

Well, the sunset over there is of course beautiful! However, with the sunset and dawn, Bali is generally very lucky)

Thanks for all attentions...
