TRIBUNBATAM.id, BALI - There is always something interesting to explore from Bali.
In addition to beautiful landscapes, Pulau Seribu Pura is also rich in arts and culture.
Even visiting Bali doesn't seem boring.
In fact, many people are now impatient to set foot on the Island of the Gods.
This is reasonable considering that Indonesia's tourism sector, including Bali, has been closed for almost two years due to the pandemic.
Now, the situation has changed because the pandemic has gradually been brought under control.
Therefore, the government is optimistic to reopen the tourism gates of the Island of the Gods.
This opening is also a #ItstimeforBali momentum.
