Hi!

Today I would like to tell a few interesting facts about an island in Indonesia - BALI !
It's my dream to see this island with one's own eyes, maybe in the future I'll have opportunity to go there :) Below I published 5 facts and I hope that it will be interesting for you :)



5 Amazing facts about Bali :


1.  Nyepi Day "Day od Silence" - This day is only celebrated in Bali on march, the whole island have a ban to use lights or candles, no cars, no motorbikes, no people on the road, shops are closed and also the airport. It's forbidden talking, eating, working and travelling. The silence begins at 6:00 am and will go on until the next 24 hours.

2. Coffee is the most popular beverages in the world but not everyone knows that the most expensive coffee in the world comes from Bali. The prices reaching €550 per kilogram. It's called Kopi Luwak and also cat poop coffee. It's very strange but the beans comes from digestion of Civat Cats - are the small mammals.

3. In Bali most people practise Balinele Hinduism it's formed of local beliefs and Hindu. Generaly it's a little bit strange because Indonesia is Muslim country.

4. In Bali we can find a lot of people who has one of the four names :
    - Wayan it means first born
    - Made it means second born
    - Nyoman it means third born
    - Ketut it means fourth born
The fifth baby is again Wayan!

5. Bali has only two seasons !
    - The dry seasion ( Abril to October)
    - The wet seasion ( October to Abril)
What else according to Bali calendar 1 year lasts 210 days (they're 6 months to a Pawukon year, and 35 days to a Pawukon months) and it's called The Pawukon.


                                                                                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                         
                                                                                                                                       P.

    I very liked this post. I like to find out the things which are connected with the tourism and different countries over the world. In particular, I liked the information about Day of Silence and about the names. It's something which is completely different than our culture and maybe unthinkeable for us :)
