In contrast to contemporary dance in which the movements are free and only constrained by the limits of the body, the dance gesture of a Bali traditional dance have been kept unchanged since first originated as a part of religious ritual done in the Pura (Hindu temple) to give praise or worship their deities, and passed from generation to generation.

“Established back in 1992, Budiasa Art Gallery has successfully become a medium for carvers of Mas village to display and make profit from their

wooden-based handicrafts.”

Balinese people are amongst those who are

blessed with raw talents in art, from painting, sculpting, carving, and many more. The most well-known region known to produce the best woodcarver on the island is Mas village, Ubud. There are certain factors that made Mas village are so famous for their talented woodcarvers, and one of them is Budiasa Art Gallery.

Built by a prolific woodcarver Made Budiasa, Budiasa Art Gallery simply exists to support the woodcarvers of Mas village and its surrounding areas so they can easily distribute and sell their handicrafts. Before the gallery was established, most of the carvings were marketed

through then only art shop located in Denpasar. It takes times and lots of effort just to make a handful of profit on that era.

WONDROUS NATURE RETREAT

56 TRAVELER

“Founded in Wanagiri village, northern Bali, Banyumala is a twin waterfall in the midst of pristine jungle offering rugged natural beauty and distinctive atmosphere for a perfect tranquil getaway.“

57TRAVELER

To reach Banyumala waterfall is not a

really easy feat, but don’t let that discourage you at all. Embrace your adventurous side and you will be greeted with prime scenery of a place seldom visited even by the locals. The sight of twin waterfalls flowing freely between steep cascading rocks, forming a pool of pond below is more than enough to keep you there for a rejuvenating while. Lush green leaves grows freely covering majority of the rock crevice creating a unique sight as if the water flows through a giant tree.

To reach the waterfall, travel to Wanagiri district, near the lower edge of Lake Buyan, on the crater rim road between Munduk and the main highway from Singaraja to Denpasar. Follow the faded sign away from the lake area leading to a small rural road and series of painted orange arrows, which ultimately leads you to a single track only fit for motorcycle. From here, hike all the way for about 300 meters until you arrived at the waterfall. Your effort will be paid fully by the alluring exclusive sight and a chance to refresh your exhausted body by secludedly swimming in its fresh clear water.

“In the midst of Sukawati district, Gianyar, Hidden Canyon Guwang is a concealed destination which

has attracted both locals and international tourists alike for its

unspoiled natural beauty.”

HIDDEN & MAJESTIC

Located just beyond the Beji river of Guwang, lies a natural gem referred

as ‘Hidden Canyon Guwang’. This place is one of the most anticipated getaways in Bali often visited by those who wish to soak in its quaint atmosphere. Peculiar shaped rocks protruding the path into the canyon, makes an exotic, unusual sight.

The hidden canyon of Guwang is actually made by two narrow canyons which elevates 30 meters above the ground. The panorama within is admirably surreal. Sunlight reflected through the clear river water unto the stone creates a translucent greenish tone that permeates the whole area.

On the way to the majestic canyon, just before set of ladders descending to the entrance, you will pass a Balinese temple called Pura Dalem Guwang. There is a spring inside the temple where you can clean yourself after exploring one of the island’s finest hidden wonders.

Go back to the bright side of classic style with these gorgeous Bohemian pattern dress.

TURN OFF APPS NOTIFICATIONSome apps will spam you with pointless news. Every one of them is sucking down

some battery life, so cut them off at the source.

REDUCE BACKGROUND REFRESHINGPeople imagine that swiping apps closed in the multitasking menu is saving

power, but you really need to be taking a look in ‘Settings’ to really make a differ-ence. Allowing apps to refresh themselves like this is a big drain on your battery.
