Matters needing attention in Bali tourism

Bali is a favorite holiday destination for tourists from all over the world. The popularity in recent years is very high, because the natural environment and climate are very comfortable, and all kinds of infrastructure and entertainment projects are newly built. In particular, the hotels here are world-class and attract many western tourists. Let's introduce it in detail below.

: Matters needing attention in Bali

1. It is best not to eat roadside stalls locally. It has something to do with the local water quality. Some vendors don't change water in the process of making food, so it's better not to eat it.

2. It is also the same reason to suggest drinking bottled mineral water.

Don't wear too ostentatious jewelry (especially necklaces) and try to avoid going out after 7 pm. Especially for girls who go out to play by themselves, we must pay attention to this and go inside. The local streets are narrow and motorcycles are the main means of transportation. Seeing those motorcycles galloping on the road at night is a bit scary, and it is easy to grab bags and jewelry. Once valuables are robbed, even if they are found by the local police, they are difficult to receive and often have nowhere to go. If the passport and other important things in the bag are robbed, it can only be solved in Jakarta, Indonesia, and it is likely to stay there for a month, which is very troublesome.

Take care of yourself as much as possible when traveling. The local registration fee is 300 600 yuan (RMB), which takes a long time and is rather troublesome.

Most local residents are warm and friendly, but they ignore the praise of strangers. You know all the reasons. Safety comes first.

6. If you want to buy things in duty-free shops, it is best to consign them or deposit them in domestic duty-free shops. Some goods in Bali airport duty-free shop are more expensive than those in China.

7. If you go out in a large group and want to buy some special products in the convenience store next to the hotel, you can buy them early, not at the end of the trip (this is only for popular special products, such as sunscreen), because some shop assistants will raise prices. For example, the sunscreen we bought on the first day was about 70 RMB. When we want to buy some more in a few days, the price will be 120 RMB.

1. passport and photocopy, one-inch and two-inch photos, air tickets, hotel reservations.

2. Bank card: Huaxia Bank Card 1. Now it is free to withdraw money from overseas three times a month, and large shopping malls can use UnionPay to swipe their cards; 1visa or MasterCard credit card, which must be used when UnionPay is unavailable;

3. Cash: prepare 2000 yuan/person (RMB) to be converted into Indonesian rupiah. Each customer's consumption concept is different, so it is suggested to take cash according to their own situation.

4. Camera and charger (not for photographers), mobile phone and charger, camera waterproof case, mobile power supply, universal power conversion socket/plug (generally available in hotels, but not many, it is recommended to bring your own for convenience), and mobile power supply with a capacity of 5000mAh is enough.

If you don't buy a local mobile phone card, you'd better open international roaming for your mobile phone.

6. Commonly used drugs (stomach medicine, cold medicine, antidiarrheal medicine, sesame oil, band-aid, carsickness medicine, anti-inflammatory medicine, etc. Take it in moderation) to prevent discomfort caused by adapting to the environment.

7. Antipruritic potion (double Ren Fei is the best, toilet water will do). There are many mosquitoes in Bali because of the climate.

8. It is recommended to bring your own toiletries, such as toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo, shower gel and towel (you deserve a travel suit).

9. Daily necessities: waterproof bags, U-shaped pillow covers, paper towels, nail clippers and towels.

10. Skin care makeup: sunscreen, after-sun repair, cosmetics, facial cleanser, sleeping mask, bath products, comb, makeup remover cotton, cleansing oil, small mirror, apron, lipstick, (travel sample), and bagged dirty clothes.

1. Sunscreen: Sunglasses, hats and sunscreen are indispensable. The sunshine in Bali is very abundant.

12. Signature pen: You need to fill in the immigration form on the plane.

13. You can bring your own snacks, in case the taste is different, such as instant noodles, Laoganma.

14. Teachers must bring: razors, flip-flops, black shoes, and wear a pair of pure white socks and a pair of black socks before shooting.

15. The wife must bring: light off-the-shoulder underwear or contact underwear (contact bra, breast enhancement patch), and prepare a pair of light-colored high heels or sandals and flip-flops.

16. Ladies bring their own casual clothes. It is recommended to choose a dress or short skirt that highlights the figure, and a retro long skirt with bright colors or white/big red. Whether it is urban street shooting or seaside shooting, the effect is very good; If you bring your own bikini, it is recommended to choose bright colors, but it is not recommended to have patterns. A solid bikini will look better in front of the camera than a pattern.

Taboos of Temple Fair in Bali

Temple fairs in Bali continue all year round, hundreds of times large and small. It is not easy to miss them. To attend these temple fairs, you need to pay attention to the following points:

Don't touch the head of a Balinese, because it is disrespectful to Hindus.

The left hand is considered unclean, so try to use the right hand when touching people.

To attend celebrations, temple fairs, or just enter temples, you need to wear sleeveless coats, skirts and trousers that can cover your knees, and wear a belt. Women in physiological period are not allowed to enter the temple.

If you are not ready to pray sincerely and accept the blessing of Balinese religion, please don't enter the prayer area of the temple fair. In Bali, you can visit social activities, night markets and outdoor dance and drama performances.

Before and after prayer, you can speak or do other things, but you should be solemn and attentive when praying.

All kinds of sacrifices after the sacrifice, except ants, chickens and ducks and other insects and animals, can be eaten by God. The evil spirits who sacrificed on the ground robbed them of their food.

You can take pictures at the temple fair celebration, but please don't walk in front of people kneeling and praying. Please don't sit higher than the priest or sacrifice, and don't take pictures of the priest with a flash. Please maintain a respectful attitude.

If you want to take pictures of a specific person, you'd better get permission in advance. Some people will ask for a fee, so it's best to discuss it in advance.
