My last post concluded the beauty of Thai islands.South east asia is a perfect place for beaches as caribbean is in the west.One of most favourite island is Bali near Indonesia(governed by Indonesia).Largely Hindus(appr. 93%).Unlike indonesia which has mostly muslims.Indian’s would specially love to go because it has numerous temples of indian gods and goddesses.Bali is the wealthiest state of indonesia.Tourism dominates much to bali’s economy.official language is indonesian,beside balinese is widely spoken.It has population of more than 3 million.
