The 24 Best Things to Do in Bali

"Uluwatu Temple, in Bali’s extreme south in Pecatu Village, is a crucial ancient site that has protected Hindu islanders from evil spirits since 900 AD. Its location is the main draw for tourists: some 230 feet up on a precipitous cliff edge, with the powerful waves of Uluwatu Beach lapping at its base. The sunsets here are among Bali’s most sensational. As an add-on, the daily kecak dance performances (about $10), with chants, costumed performances, and rings of fire, make the setting even more enchanting. The temple itself is rather tiny, especially in comparison to the massive cliffs and sea, but the scene as a whole is glorious. The sunset kecak is special, but the amphitheater-like space is regularly packed beyond capacity; arrive 45 minutes early for the best seats. Watch out for the wild monkeys who are quick to snatch belongings from inattentive tourists." - Travis Levius
