Okay...
Now..it's mean business...^0^
The real trip... Start!!
Bali... day two...^^!
Day two... we started the REAL journey...
Day two itinerary : Bali's Batik Factory - Ubud (The Blanco Renaissance Museum) - Tampak Siring (Tirta Empul) - Kintamani - Tegal Alang - Sukawati Art Market - Watch Kecak Dance
There... One day full trip! ^.^
After breakfast, we headed to Ubud... However, on our way to go there, the driver dropped us to the Bali's Batik factory...
Bali's Batik and modification ^___^
There, we could buy clothes and cloth... We even could get our own customize Bali's Batik on our clothes! (well, if you're okay that your clothes are being painted^__^). Like my friend did...
Then, we continued our tour to Ubud~The Blanco Renaissance Museum~ ^__^
Just when we entered the gate to the museum, I'd already excited..!!! ^_^
That place is really a COOL and COZY place to visit...! I definitely suggest you to visit it...!
*It is said that if you don't visit The Blanco Museum, you don't go to ubud*
With the entrance fee starts from Rp30.000,- /person + free drink, it's really a great deal...Since we can see many things there...
Well, we can't take picture inside the museum... But, no worry! It's worth it... When we hang around the garden, we even can interact with some birds... Beautiful view, many flowers, friendly birds (and also staff ^__^), and last but not least... many Blanco's masterpiece...^__^
*Oh... How I love to spend one day in this place and just taking pictures of the garden, the flowers and the birds...^.^*
Kakatoa Bird at Blanco Museum
But... the show must go on...
So, after Blanco's museum.. we headed to Tampak Siring~Tirta Empul~It'll cost Rp15.000,-/person
The Gate of Pura
This place is a 'Pura' or shrine/temple near the president's palace... Since it's sacred place, I couldn't tell you much more...T.T
There are several 'un-written' rules to get inside Tirta Empul..:
First...You have to be 'pure'. It means if you are woman, and are having your period, you CAN'T go inside the 'Pura'
*that's why I couldn't tell more about this place T___T*
Second... You have to dress appropriately... No shorts...
You can borrow 'sarong' and cloth to tie around your waist...
*that's most likely the clothes that you have to wear whenever you enter a sacred place or 'Pura'... So, if you want to save money (cost for borrow 'sarong' and cloth), it'll better if you bring your own 'sarong' and cloth~scarf can replace the cloth~... and don't forget that Bali is an island of thousands 'Pura' or shrines ^__^*
Third... You might want to bring spare clothes/shirt/T-shirt and towel/tissue^.^
The word 'Tirta' means water... So... it's a place to purify the body before entering the 'Pura'
There are many people that wash their faces or even swim/take a bath...*according to my friend's story...T_T*
Outside the Pura
It's almost lunch time...
So we went to Lake View Restaurant~Kintamani... *it's a buffet restaurant, up-high on the hill*
The retribution fee to enter Kintamani area is Rp3.000,-/person
There, we could see the breathtaking scenery of Mount Kintamani and Batur lake...
Cool breeze+breathtaking scenery+delicious food = ...
*imagine it yourself ^__^*
With a full stomach, we continued our tour to the last itinerary ... Watching the Kecak Performance..!!!
The show began at 17.30 WITA...
But before we went there, we had a brief stop at Tegal Alang... *an unique paddy field... unfortunately, the paddy was already harvested...T.T*
Tegal Alang
and also stopped by to Sukawati art market to shopping...^__^
*we are LADIES...we LOVE to shop ^__^*
The last stop...YAY!! ^0^
To watch Kecak Performance, it's cost around Rp80.000,-/pax
Kecak is a traditional Balinese dance, which doesn't use any instruments, besides the voice of the dancers (the Kecak dancers are around 100 men)
It tells the story of Rama-Shinta...
And that's the end of day two...^_^
A/N 1 I might add more information about the Kecak Performance and also more pictures, if I have time...
