TRAVEL | Bali Day 3 & 4 : Sukawati Market, Tegallalang Rice Terraces and Tanah Lot Temple

Assalamualaikum and hello everybody! This is the final installation of my Bali posts and incase you have missed my previous posts, kindly read these 2 posts first. :)

Bali 2015 | Day 1

Bali 2015 | Day2

Okay so I know the last post is about 26 days ago and to be honest I actually forgotten some of the info of the places I went to. *hahaha* but never mind, as I mentioned in my 2 posts, travel posts are more about the photos. I will try to write any links related to the places. So lets check out what we did on our 3rd day in Bali! :D

We left our villa roughly at 12 and headed to Sukawati Market specifically to buy souvenirs for our families and friends. Like this is the only shopping we did in Bali, seriously. Before stopping by Sukawati, we stopped at this Silver Jewellery factory and boutique to take a look at the accessories. But I wasn't interested in any of the designs and know I won't be wearing them because I don't really like to accessorize.

Anyway we just stopped by for about roughly 20 minutes to look around and we get back into our car and continue our journey to Sukawati Market. By the way, I don't remember the name of the silver jewellery shop, sorry!

Sukawati Market is located at Gianyar Regency and is well known for it's art. During our journey from our villa to Sukawati, I noticed there are a lot of teak wood furniture, crafts, woodcarvings, art shops and homeware stuff stores along the road so kinda get the idea that this is the place to find such things. Again, I hardly took any photos because we only have one hour to shop for souvenirs. I think we spent about IDR2,500,000 in one hour. *huhuhu* #powershopping. :P If you want to know more about Sukawati Market, please click HERE. :)

Then we went to Tegallalang Rice Terraces which is located in Ubud. The view is so beautiful! At first we went down because thinking we would like to explore the whole area of the rice terraces, but I kid you not, I don't think I can do it! *hahahah* so we went up again and just take some photos. Read THIS article to find out more about Tegallalang Rice Terraces. ^_^

This is me saying NO to climbing up and going down of the rice terraces. :P

One with the JB. :)

There were a lot of souvenirs, clothing and home stuff shops so take a look around if you are interested. Bargain expertise is necessary if you want to get a good price but I AM NOT a good one. I left everything to my JB. :P

I just can't digest this! *hahahaha* :P

The last pit stop of the day is Tanah Lot Temple which is a must visit place for all tourist. I am not so sure about the history and such as this is a sacred place for Hindus so read this link for more information okay? :D Oh there's an entrance fee needed to be paid before entering, and car park fee as well. I think it's roughly around IDR60,000 if I'm not mistaken. I apologize if it's not correct! T_T

Pure Tanah Lot

I don't know what kind of pose this is. -_-

Another one with my JB. :D

This girl came up to me and said she wanted a selfie with me. *awkward* but BOLEH LA! :P

Check out my Bali video to see the Tanah Lot Temple for yourself. :D

The sunset was amazing, it was beautiful.This is definitely an experience, seeing all these temples and enjoying the beautiful nature.

So we went back to our villa, had our nasi campur because we were damn exhausted and hungrehhhhh!!

Last night at this beautiful villa, I am going to miss you so much......

I booked an Aromatherapy massage before checking out of the villa the next day. The staff came over to our room and set up the massage table. The masseur came over and did a fantastic job!! I fell asleep during the whole process because it was so relaxing and so so good and the best part it was only IDR180,000! :) I would say roughly around RM40-RM50? Anyway do try out the massage service if you have the time!

We made a quick pitstop at Echo Beach to watch the surfers. Man it was so windy and the waves are pretty scary looking to me! :P

Okay guys, I'm wrapping up my Bali Travel posts. I hope my photos captured all the wonderful things I saw in Bali. This won't be the last time, I will definitely come back and explore other places. So where am I going next? ^_^

Till then,

TRAVEL | Bali 2015 (Day 2) - GWK Cultural Park, Pura Luhur Uluwatu and Jimbaran

Assalamualaikum and hello love. This is the second part (2nd day) of my honeymoon post to Bali. If you have not read the first post, kindly click Travel Bali (Day 1) to check out the villa that we stayed in. :) As I mentioned in the previous post, there will be a lot of photos rather than words. :D During our honeymoon, we did not take any honeymoon package whatsoever. We just booked the villa on our own and arrange our schedule. The villa has Day Tour services where you can choose where you want to go. Roughly the tours will be around 6 to 12 hours, depending on your preference. The fees for the day tour will starts at IDR450,000 and above. My husband and I decided for this trip, we are not going to rush our days and we are not going to go to all the attraction places because firstly, we were only there for 4 days and 3 nights. Secondly, this is supposed to be our HONEYMOON and yes we both wanted a relaxing holiday and we don't want to wake at 9 am just because of wanting to go somewhere. We opted to go around 2 or 3 places only for a day. We are going back to Bali to explore more for sure! ^_^ On the second day, we started our day with a relaxing morning. We had our breakfast by our private pool and of course had a perfect morning swim. It was indeed a lovely morning. :) We left our villa at 1pm for our day tour, so I had ample time to get ready so I really like that. If you know me, I really don't like to be hurried. Annoying! *hahahaha*

I had a cup of Bali coffee with poached eggs and toasts while my husband had scrambled eggs with toasts and a glass of OJ.

This is the door to our Villa. :D

The first place we went to is GWK Cultural Park which is located in Ungasan, Badung regency that serves as cultural destination for events, exhibitions and such. It is also the home of Garuda Wisnu statue which stands at 120 metres tall and 64 meter width. I was told that there were a lot concerts were held in this place. The place is still under construction so the place is not completely done.

We managed to catch the Balinese dance performance. There's a schedule outside the amphitheater if you are interested to check out any of the performances.

This is Garuda Wisnu, stands at 120 metres tall and 64 metres width.

Again, gotta love this beautiful door!

The entrance fee for GWK Cultural Park is IDR100,000 per pax which I find is pretty steep. This is one of the place you can skip because there's nothing much to do here. Not worth it.

Our next stop is Pura Luhur Uluwatu which is a must visit place if you have the time. The view is simply breathtaking! Click HERE to find out more about the temples, I 'm gonna give you guys some shots on the place. :) Oh btw, we were told to take precautions of the monkeys but seriously I only saw about 3 monkeys due to the constructions happening at that area. Oh the kecak dance is must see too but however we did not see it because I don't want to wait 2 1/2 hours at the temples doing nothing just to wait for that dance. that will take place during sunset. So make sure to arrange the time nicely with your tour guide, okay?

OMG gemok gile muka!! T_T

The guys need to wear a sarong and the girls has to wear this yellow cloth around her waist.

Our last stop of the day is sunset dinner at Jimbaran. This is the most raved location to watch sunset and I am really looking forward to this because I love watching sunset because I really think it is the most beautiful view ever! We reached Jimbaran quite early (I think around 5.15pm). So after ordering our food, we walked around the beach for some photos and just enjoy the moment. :) We told the waiter that we want our food to be service at 6.30pm and they said okay. So if you want to have a good spot for sunset viewing, make sure to come early.

The airport is just around the corner!

We saw a couple doing their pre-wedding photoshoot! Awwwwwww tetiba teringat outdoor photoshoot sendiri. hahah! :P

Yummy chilli crab!

Grilled prawns

Sotong goreng tepung is a must. :P

2 chilli crabs, 400g of prawns and 700g of squids (the squids they charge per piece not gram), 1 steamed rice and 2 bottles of Coke were price at almost IDR700,000. I guess it's about RM200 for 2 person. I don't know know whether this is expensive or not but we don't really mind because we know that this will be the only expensive meal we will have on this trip. *hahaha*. But they do have set meal if you want to, but we prefer ala carte. Anyway the name of the restaurant is 'Langsam' if I am not mistaken.
