]]>Borobudur Temple
Borobudur Temple is one of Indonesia’s most popular tourist attractions and the first ancient temple most tourists visit in this country. With nine stacked platforms, an imposing central dome, and around 500 Buddha statues scattered around it, this temple has been holding the title of the world’s largest Buddhist temple since the 7th century.
Prambanan Temple
Indonesia’s largest Hindu temple was built in the honor of the deity of Trimūrti and it has been around since the 8th century. You’ll stumble upon a towering central building and hundreds of smaller temples on its grounds, and they’re all amazing in their own right.
Uluwatu Temple
Uluwatu may not be large and imposing like the previous two temples, but don’t let trick you into thinking it’s not amazing. This temple is best known for its dramatic location on the top of a high cliff and it offers some amazing ocean views that make it worth the trip.

]]>Best Time to Visit
Between April and October are the best times to visit since it’s during the island’s dry season. The island only experiences the rainy season and the dry season. The temperatures remain between the mid-80s and low 90s throughout the year.
(@femmetravel)How to Get Around
To have freedom to explore the country and not the stress of driving in a foreign country, we suggest hiring a car and driver. You can also bike, but you’ll have to navigate around the heavy traffic. To get around neighboring islands, you’re best bet is by boat.
Where to Stay
Capella Ubud- Bali
Located in the lush forests, this 5-star hotel features a tented camp surrounded by nature. Capella Ubud- Bali is much more than a hotel, it’s hidden and it’s perfect for those who want to be in nature, but still want lavish amenities. There are only twenty-four rooms and they all have private saltwater pools. Even the on-site restaurant is influenced by its jungle surroundings.
Kayumanis Jimbaran Private Estate & Spa
This 5-star hotel is an exclusive sanctuary that’s spread across a coconut grove surrounded by palm trees. The design of the 20 villas is inspired by the island’s tropical environment and it features indigenous materials like local stone and hardwoods. The hotel is just minutes from a beach and within walking distance of seafood cafes and there’s an onsite restaurant.
Kelapa Retreat & Spa
Kelapa Retreat & Spa, a 5-star boutique hotel, has villas within the tropical ground and they have beach, garden, or ocean views with each one has its own private swimming pool. There’s a spa, yoga and meditation instructors, and a restaurant a few meters from the beach.
What to Do
Uluwatu Temple
This isolated sanctuary is situated on a cliff and the architecture is to die for. Look out for the waves, just 200-some feet below. Not only is the sanctuary popular with tourists and locals, monkeys love it as well and they may even steal some of your possessions!
Kuta
Bali’s most popular beach town is full of bars, stores, restaurants, spas, and a water park. The biggest attraction is the beach which has sandy shores, perfect for surfers, sunbathers, kite-flyers, and swimmers.
Kintamani
If you’re looking for something besides the beach, Kintamani has a towering and active volcano and a large lake. Don’t miss one of Bali’s most important temples, Pura Ulun Danu Batur.
What to Eat
Babi Guling
One of Bali’s most famous dishes is Babi guling, or turning pig. It’s pig that’s been hand turned on an open fire and it’s really tender and crispy.
Bebek Betutu
This smoked duck dish is rubbed and stuffed with a mix of spices and then cooked in banana leaves. Many restaurants require a day’s notice for this dish because cooking takes around 12 hours.
Sate
Sate is a popular street food in Bali and it’s strips of chicken, pork, beef, goat, rabbit, or tofu placed on skewers and grilled over a hot flame. It’s served with many sauces on the side, with peanut and shrimp paste-based sauces being the most common.

]]>The Waterfalls
Are you a fan of stunning natural views? Of course, you are, who isn’t? Well, Lombok is known for having many gorgeous waterfalls. The most famous is Tiu Kelep, located right in the middle of a beautiful emerald jungle. It’s about a 45-minute walk to get there (the walk itself is beautiful) and the 45 meter, misty waterfall at the end, with a pool you can swim in at the base, is just breathtaking.
The Snorkeling
If you enjoy snorkeling, Lombok is a must-visit location. There are plenty of different beaches where you can snorkel, with so much interesting marine life like coral reefs and colorful fish that you can gaze at while enjoying the warm waters.
The Hot Springs
No jacuzzi can compare with the natural hot springs on Mount Rinjani, the main mountain on Lombok, where Air Kalak Hot Springs can help you relax and soothe away any aches or pains, with its naturally medicinal high volcanic mineral content.

]]>Dress to Impress
Your outfit can make or break your Bali Swing photo. If you don’t have a beautiful, flowy dress to wear for the occasion, you can rent one on the spot. Go with lighter colors that will truly stand out in the pictures.
Prepare to Pay
There are many picture-perfect swings in Bali, but if you want to check out the official Bali Swing, get ready to break the bank. If you want the full experience, including rides on several different swings and nests, get ready to pay $35 for the entrance. It’s best to have company because you’ll have to pay extra if you want in-house photographers to take your pictures.

(@travelinthebestplace)Perfect Timing
The official Bali Swing is one of those places that’s always crowded, but the earlier you get there, the better. Be there at opening hour and you’ll have enough time to explore everything without dealing with too much pressure as other people wait to get on the swings.

]]>What to Do
Since Jakarta was colonized by the Dutch, you can see their architectural influence within the city. This is most prominent in the Old Town or Kota Tua. There are many colonial-style government and trade buildings that were once used for business and now have been re-purposed into museums and other fun activities to do.
Jakarta has always had a significant Chinese population, and visiting the Chinatown or Glodok neighborhood is a very interesting way to learn about the culture. It was the Dutch who actually created this neighborhood for the ethnic Chinese folks, and you can now find there amazing Chinese food, as well as gorgeous temples like Dharma Bhakti, which is the oldest and was built in the mid 17th century.

(@cankf)Since Indonesia is the largest archipelago in the world, it’s only natural to take advantage of the location and go to some fabulous beaches. There are many different islands you can travel to from Jakarta, depending on how much time you have, but if you only want to go for the day, one of the best is Bidadari Island. Allow yourself to relax and see some of the most incredible blue waters of your life.
Indonesia has such a rich history, it’s really worth taking some time to understand it. To do this, go to the National Museum of Indonesia where you will see artifacts from prehistoric times that really tell the story of the country through art and other relics. The National Gallery museum is also within the same area as the museum and showcases famous historical and modern artists, so it’s nice to visit both and compare the ancient to comtemporary.
Just across from the museum is the National Monument, which is an important reminder to the people and country of the power of liberation. It was constructed to commemorate Indonesian independence after so many years of colonization.
Nightlife and Food
If you want to taste some real authentic Indonesian food in a feast like setting, go to Lara Djonggrang. This restaurant not only serves traditional food like you’ve never seen before, but the interior of the restaurant is decorated in artifacts and unique treasures from Indonesia.

(@shecreatbelly)Jakarta is all about the nightlife, and if you love to dance, you have to hit up the club Fable. It’s super popular with the locals and has amazing local DJs that really step up the party.
If you’re in the mood to get some fresh air and be on an amazing rooftop, go to the bar BART. BART has the best cocktails with the best view, and there’s always an awesome DJ spinning great music.

This makes me sooooo happy and content. 
Yes, a lot of patience is required in the process as I always see something I could improve or make it better. My perfectionist side still comes up sometimes. But at the end, it's all about a learning process… 
Lesson about all of this online videos story: ACCEPTEANCE is always the key!! I realize it doesn't have to be always perfect videos, but what is important is the intention behind, and my intention is to SHARE, TO SERVE, TO HELP PEOPLE to find their centers and to stay connected within ourselves and to come back home to their
