Bali - 27-30 May 2005. A land of beautiful temples, lovely people, and unforgettable culture 

Arjuna in all his might - Several traffic junctions in Bali have a large sculpture depicting a Hindu deity. The one here is Arjuna in all his might 

The large statue of Indra at the Tirtta Ganga temple 

This means - Big kite shop.. I think 

Here we have the arch of Kites - one of the many warehouses that line the highway  

One of the most lively of the butterfly kites.. 

The Kite-boy. the cute chap, who graciously agreed to pose in the photograph 

This should be a relatively easy kite to fly, given that most dragons are high flyers. You can have customised Airbus and Boeing kites made here at a slightly extra charge 

Here we have a big, really big - A butterfly kite. The wing span is 5 metres 

Kite Gallery - a Kite thats into the Shipping industry 

Here we have my mother. Masuk by the way means Toilet 

The Temple is located on a hill, with beautiful lush greenery surrounding it. What you see here is the temple side gate  

The entrance to the main Sanctum at the temple. The trademark split--arch adorned with a variety of sculptures  

The entrance to the hall of idols.  

A close-up of a statuette of Ganapathi(elephant God) at the hall of statues 

One of the many sanctums in the temples. In all temples one would find adornments in red and gold colours.  

The statue of Indra on his chariot pulled by the mighty horses.  

One of the tens of statuettes that line the compound surrounding the sanctum 

At the Tirtta Ganga temple - a Hundi or donation box 

Some of the beautiful rice paddies, located on the outskirts of Ubud. Best time to go would be morning whn the farmers are watering the plants 

The entry to the Tanah Lot temple - At the entrance to all temples is this kind of split-arch with tis exquisite sculptures 

Using my flash, some of the rock features were visible 

The temple during sunset. We couldnt climb up to the temple, and were told that it is only open for worshippers and not tourists (?). Anyway, just behind the temple is the sun going down into the sea.  

The temple at Tanah Lot - one of the priary tourist attractions in Bali. The sunset is great to see here. And as is quite eveident in this pic, unless you have a ultra advanced camera with an even more advanced fliter, photographs are best taken before sunset 

I know its romantic and all that, but when you come to a place to watch the sunset you should try and look at the sun. but those two in the background never ceased their pda activities
