Indonesia: Islands Untouched by the Fire II
heading (paragraph): States
Published: 12.2.2016

Bali, an island on this video, seems to be bright and colorful. Most of the island is green, there are many rice fields and waterfalls and Hinduism gives atmosphere to all of this. You can see traces and symbols related to this religion almost everywhere. Bali is also much wealthier and also arid compared to Lombok island (in video’s second half of the footage). The latter’s main sight is Rinjani mountain – which most of the tourist seek to climb. There are also beautiful sand beaches on the south of Lombok.

We left Java for Bali. It is very different from other 17 thousand Indonesian islands. Many holidaymakers chose it as the place for vacation. Nature on the island is diverse and there are many contrasts. The atmosphere is wonderful and extraordinary. But to get such impressions we had to travel across the island first. We intended to travel through and through the central highlands. This would allow us to learn about the terrain and decide on which volcano to climb. Our route ran from the south to the north and back to the south in the tot al length of 200 kilometers (13 hours of ride on a scooter).
