Tourists traveling to Bali for the first time always have the same few concerns. Is the island safe? Is it really that affordable? And do the attractions look as good in real life as they appear on social media? The answer to all three of these questions is an emphatic yes! Here at The Bali Sun, we have visited just about every one of Bali’s attractions, even the secret ones that no one really knows about. We can confidently say that we know a thing or two about the island’s dreamy waterfalls.
What we love about Bali’s waterfalls is that they offer tourists a chance to literally dive into Balinese culture. For many tourists these are sites to explore, take a few photos and on hot days cool off. But for those seeking to explore more about Balinese culture these natural wonders are the perfect gateway to deeper understanding. Since Bali’s rivers are revered as sacred, each of Bali’s waterfalls, no matter how big or small, is connected to mythology, local folklore and the spirituality of the island.
