Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park

Condor Plaza is a cultural park located in Uluwatu, the highest point in southern Bali, near Jimbaran Beach. It is a prototype square left unfinished from the Suharto era. The reason it is named Condor Plaza is because the world's tallest bronze statue of a condor was originally erected here. Here, you can also enjoy the beautiful southern Bali scenery from a height. Origin of Condor Plaza In 2003, the Indonesian government began the construction of Condor Plaza. The plan was to build a statue of the Hindu god of destruction and his mount, the condor, on the mountain. The total height would exceed 100 meters. It is said that a monk once advised Suharto that after the completion of this bronze statue, it would bless the prosperity of the Indonesian nation as well as the happiness and safety of its people. However, Suharto stepped down before the square was completed, so this expensive project was halted. The upper body, arms, and head of the condor are scattered across various parts of the square. Although the Condor Plaza statue is an "unfinished project," it is still worth seeing. From Jimbaran to the south, along Jalan Uluwatu, you can come to the hill where Condor Plaza is located. After entering the gate and climbing the stairs, you will see a statue of a snake wearing a laurel crown with a slender, coiled body on one side. This hill is about 200 meters high. When you reach the hilltop, you can see the large bronze statue of the "god of destruction" Vishnu. Although only the head and chest are completed, the very lifelike facial expression still looks impressive. The arms of the "god of destruction" are placed beside a small path in the middle of the hill, so you can look for them. If you walk further in, you will see the giant statue of a condor's head facing the flat square in front. This square was excavated from the mountain with large excavators. The high and neat stone walls around the square were originally planned to be carved with Hindu inscriptions and mythological stories.Bali · 18.1km from downtown

This was more fun than I expected.We visited in mid-July and the crowd was quite manageable. Most rides had short waiting time, while popular ones like Python took around 20 - 30 minutes.My favourite was the Boomerang. So much fun! Python was another highlight, while Climax was definitely the most extreme one for me 😂There are plenty of food stops and shaded areas, so the afternoon sun wasn’t too bad. Some rides allow phones or action cameras while others don’t. There are shoe racks but at your own risk. And temporary phone racks before the rides too, staff will give you a band to identify your belongings.Overall, a really fun day out!Note: Cashless system in the park. For the 3 of us, recommended to load Rp. 1mil in the wristband for locker, food and drinks. They recommend Rp. 500k but it’s not enough. You can also top up within the park, just ask the staff.

Nusa Penida is worth visiting because it has some of Bali's most spectacular coastal scenery such as dramatic cliffs, turquoise water, white-sand beaches and famous viewpoints that look almost unreal in photos.

Ubud là một nơi rất tuyệt vời với những căn nhà truyền thống và văn hoá. Đặc biệt vào buổi tối khi đèn trong các khu phố được bật sáng và mình đi bộ trong khu phố cổ. Người dân nơi đây rất thân thiện. Chắc chắn sẽ quay lại để được sống và trải nghiệm nhiều hơn

На неспешный осмотр уделите хотя 1,5 часа. Не привлекайте обезьян ничем необычным. В любом случае в немноголюдных местах ожидайте, что на вас прыгнут обезьяны среднего возраста.

We actually enjoyed walking around the park! The statues were cool and it was interesting to learn about all the folklore. We didn’t go up the statue, as it was a bit pricey. But overall, definitely worth a visit.

This tour was interesting, and we got to see manta rays. The snorkeling was also very good!I received the photos on the same day, and they turned out to be quite good qualityWe were provided with water and a towel, and after snorkeling, we could take a shower and change clothesThe Nusa Penida tour was not bad overall, but due to the road conditions, the car ride was very bumpy and made me quite carsick

Definitely worth a visit! The interactive experience is fantastic, and the emotional value is immense – adults will find just as much joy as children! My previously withered soul was revitalized! Thank you 🙏🏻 to all the human and animal staff at the park for making this a wonderful day!

Overall, an iconic Bali cultural performance! The Kecak dance was super energetic and the cliffside sunset view was gorgeous. The only downside is that it is extremely crowded and packed tight with tourists. Still a great experience, also heavy traffic leaving the venue, took us almost 2hr back to seminyak.

A unique and unforgettable experience at Ayung River, Bali! The rafting was exciting and fun, with beautiful jungle scenery, waterfalls, and amazing views along the river. Highly recommended for anyone looking for adventure in Bali!
