Bali named number 1 travel destination by TripAdvisor

Tripadvisor published on March 21, its annual list of Travelers' Choice Awards. Winners are determined using an algorithm that takes into account a wide range of parameters including the quality and quantity of traveler reviews and ratings published on the TripAdvisor website for hotels, restaurants and attractions in destinations around the world. This year, Bali topped the list ahead of London and Paris.

On its webiste, TripAdvisor commented "Bali is a living postcard, an Indonesian paradise that feels like a fantasy. Soak up the sun on a stretch of fine white sand, or commune with the tropical creatures as you dive along coral ridges or the colorful wreck of a WWII war ship. On shore, the lush jungle shelters stone temples and mischievous monkeys. The “artistic capital” of Ubud is the perfect place to see a cultural dance performance, take a batik or silver-smithing workshop, or invigorate your mind and body in a yoga class.".
