The word paradise is used a lot in Bali, and not without reason. The combination of friendly, hospitable people, a magnificently visual culture infused with spirituality and (not least) spectacular beaches with great surfing and diving have made Bali Indonesia's unparalleled number one tourist attraction. Eighty percent of international visitors to Indonesia visit Bali and Bali alone.
The popularity is not without its flip sides — once paradisaical Kuta has degenerated into a congested warren of concrete, touts and scammers live on overcharging tourists, and the island's visibility has even drawn the unwanted attention of terrorists in 2002 and 2005 — but Bali has managed to retain its magic. Bali is a wonderful destination with something for everyone, and though heavily traveled, it is still easy to find some peace and quiet if you like.
Bali is one of over 13,000 islands in the Indonesian archipelago and is
located just over 2 kilometres from the eastern tip of the island of
Java and west of the island of Lombok. The island home of approximately
4 million people is approximately 144 kilometres from east to west and
80 kilometres north to south.
The islands varied landscape of hills and mountains, rugged coastlines
and sandy beaches, lush rice terraces and barren volcanic hillsides
provide a picturesque backdrop to the colourful and deeply spiritual
culture of this 'Island of The Gods'.
It is one of the country's 33 provinces with the provincial capital at Denpasar towards the south of the island. The island is home to the
vast majority of Indonesia's small Hindu minority. It is also the
largest tourist destination in the country and is renowned for its
highly developed arts, including dance, sculpture, painting, leather,
metalworking and music.
The Sanctuary is a beautiful,
simple solution to a real everyday problem. A place to put the
multitude of personal items we all carry around so they are easily
located again when later needed and, always fully charged.
The
simple and compact design conceals a universal charger compatible with
over 1500 electronic devices from most major brands and a USB port
allowing hundreds more electronic devices to be charged using just The
Sanctuary. Users can from now on charge their cell phone, PDA,
Blackberry, iPod, MP3 player, and bluetooth headset simultaneously in
one location.
