About Bali
Bali is an island of incredible mystery, beauty, enchantment, culture, hospitality, variety, and serenity. Those who had visited the island, 0nly little of them who wouldn’t fall under its irresistible spell.
Bali’s spectacular beaches, volcanoes, lakes, temples, and terraced rice fields combined with its deeply artistic roots and its legendary hospitality have made it one of the most visited places on earth. The religion and culture of Bali are unique in the world, and the Balinese have preserved their traditions in spite of the island’s growing tourist industry.
The strong cultural identity of Bali is based on a combination of closely related elements that include its unique religion, its language, its castes, its community life, and its art. The ancient caste system is still alive but no longer have any official or formal significance. The castes divides the Balinese into four distinct role: Priests (‘Brahmana’), Rulers (‘Ksatria’), Warriors (‘Wesia’), and commoners (‘Sudra’). Unlike India, Balinese Hinduism has no ‘untouchable’ caste.
