TIPS FROM BALIHOTELSHOLIDAY.COM |
| |
- IMMIGRATION
To enter Bali, or Indonesia
for that matter you need a passport that has
a validity period of at least six more months,
and some cases a visa as well. Citizens from
Asean (Association of Southeast Asian Nations)
do not require a visa, only a valid travel
document. Travellers from some thirty countries
are also provided with a 60-day tourist visa
issued directly upon arrival.
- CURRENCY
The local currency is
the Rupiah (Rp) which can be found in the
following denominations: the notes come in
100, 500, 1.000, 5.000, 10.000, 20.000, 50.000,
100.000; while the coin are in 25, 50, 100,
500, 1.000 rupiah denominations. We recommended
to carry US$ cash or travellers cheques.
Credit card and change cards are also accepted
in most retail establishments, at hotels and
on airlines. In some cases, a service fee
is included when charging a purchase to your
card. However, when travelling to the village,
take Rupiah with you. Keep small change handy
when riding in "Bemo" (public minibus)
or buying a drink at "Warung".
- LANGUAGE
The national language
is Bahasa Indonesia. English is spoken by
most of the younger people.
- CLOTHING
Going to Bali, dress
casually. Take light clothes, as the weather
is warm-to-hot throughout the year. There
are really only two seasons in Bali - the
wet or rainy season the rest of the year.
But the rains usually fall in short spells.
- CUSTOMS
& TRADITIONS
Shorts and mini-skirts
are not allowed in and around the temples.
It is a custom to take off the shoes in temples,
on festivals grounds and in private houses.
We strongly recommended these customs to show
your respect for the religious traditions.
Embracings and intimate touchings are not
well seen in public. Nude or topless bathing
is forbidden.
