Water that flows through natural resources has always been considered as sacred and often is used in religious ceremonies, but in some parts of it you can swim.

So you will have another unforgettable experience to feel rare and untouched nature of Bali. When I say untouched it is in the literal sense, because there are no shops, restaurants, hotels, that place is uninhabited.
USS freedom
This ship was an a American military cargo ship that sank during World War II. Today it is a real attraction in Bali. First you should see it, second you should see a wild aquatic nature and thirdly, this type of diving is great for beginners.
Devil tear
Devil tear is separated rock, one of the many islands of Bali. It got its name for the sounds created when the waves crash into the rocks.
The water is incredibly clean. The rock formations are unique. Here you will live through all your senses. The waves can be very large so it is recommended a great caution.
Elephant cave
Have you ever imagined how it feels to enter the mouth of a demon? You will be able to feel it in Ivory cave. It was created in the IX century and then it served as a sanctuary. On the outside there are ominous stone carvings that greet you, including the demon that once represented elephant. Probably earlier it served as a place which protected from the worst demons. In the vicinity there is a Buddhist temple, small waterfalls and a lot of nature.
Shrine in the holy forest of monkeys
If you want to have direct contact with the monkeys this is the right place for you. In the walk in the temples you will have the opportunity to be surrounded by monkeys and other animals. Monkeys tend to be naughty, but in general they are very well socialized. But there is no guarantee that they won’t steal food.
Walk through the village Mahjong
If you want to explore Bali as local township then the right place to do it is the village Mahjong. You have to find someone who knows it to tell you about all the specific types of vegetation, part of the culture, religion and rituals.
People there are really friendly, so they certainly won’t let you eat a bottled food, but will insist on domestic specialties cooked in unique traditional recipes.
Theatre Devdan
