There are more than 12500 temples on the island, so Bali is also known as "the island of thousands of temples".

Balinese classical dance is elegant and colorful, which has a unique position in the world dance art, and it is also a bright and wonderful work in Indonesian national dance. Among them, the lion and sword dance is the most representative.

Bali's carvings (wood and stone carvings), paintings and handicrafts are also well known for their exquisite craftsmanship and unique style. Exquisite wood and stone statues and reliefs can be seen everywhere on the island, so the island is also known as the "island of art". Mars is a famous woodcarving center on the island. Bali's paintings are unique, mostly painted with glue and mineral pigments on coarse sackcloth or white canvas, with a strong local color based on pastoral scenery and people's living customs. Therefore, Bali is known as the "Island of Poetry" and "Greece of the East". Wubu, located in the middle of the island, is a painting center, and the museum holds many historical relics and huge paintings.

There is a famous Monkey Temple in Shengyi in the middle of the island, with monkeys in groups. To the north, there is the scenic Biduku Lake. The famous Jingda Mani has a cool climate, so you can look at the Badu volcano, which is foggy all the year round. Lake Batu, at the foot of Mount Batu, is also famous for its beautiful scenery. The Gelong Palace in the southeast of the island is the seat of the famous ancient Balinese court, with a magnificent palace surrounded by a moat and roofs painted with portraits of prisoners. Danale on the southwest coast of the island has a temple on the shore. Due to years of wave erosion, this place is 25 meters away from the island, forming an isolated island. Whenever the tide rises, the temple sinks and floats in the waves, just like a palace in the water.

Bali residents hold nearly 200 religious festivals every year, with mixed songs and dances. Due to the thousands of amorous feelings of Bali, the scenery is very beautiful. Therefore, it also enjoys a variety of nicknames, such as "Divine Island", "Devil Island", "Romance Island", "Beautiful Island", "Paradise Island", "Magic Island", "Flower Island" and so on.

In natural science, in 1869 biologist Wallace also discovered that Bali is the "last bit" of the Asian continent, where typical Asian animals are distributed so far, while in Lombok Island, which is only less than 40 kilometers across the strait to the east, animals belong to Oceanian species.

Bali's economy is dominated by agriculture, rich in rice, corn, coconut and coffee. Agricultural production is mostly carried out in the form of collective cooperation. After the 2002 Bali bombing and the 2006 Indonesian tsunami, Bali's white beach is not as good as it used to be, and the local tourism industry has been hit hard. Now it has recovered quickly.

Edit the historical evolution of this paragraph

Bali is the descendant of prehistoric humans who migrated from other Indonesian islands and still retains their own national personality and ethnic characteristics, as well as social values that are most suitable for their own survival and development.

According to the literature, the first people who came into contact with the outside world to change their lives were merchant ships and travelers from India. They brought Indian Buddhism and knowledge. Because of its influence, most Bali residents believe in Hinduism, which is the only place in Indonesia that believes in Hinduism. But Hinduism here is different from Hinduism in India. It is a combination of Hindu teachings and Balinese customs, called Balinese Hinduism. Buddhism in Bali continues to spread to the surrounding Java, while Islam in the kingdom of Madjapahit in Java is also affecting Bali residents. The two religious sects coexisted for a period of time, and then thousands of Indian priests, aristocrats, soldiers and artists and craftsmen came to Bali from the surrounding Java Islands to avoid Muslim victors. As a result, the Indian religious power in Bali continues to develop and grow and become the main religious sect on the island.

The island was later discovered by Westerners, and in 1585, a Portuguese ship ran aground off the coast of Bukit, drowning most of its crew and leaving only a few survivors. The survivors were well entertained. Then three more Dutch navigators landed in Bali to explore. When they went back, there was only one person, and the other two were attracted by the beautiful customs of the island and stayed. At this time, however, Bali is still a strange place for the western world. In the 19th century the Dutch decided to conquer Bali. Balinese Hindus are basically pacifists. After the failure of the struggle, they made a tragic choice: in 1906, the Balinese committed suicide in the face of gunfire in order to resist Dutch rule. In the nineteenth century, the Dutch gained control over the whole of Bali. But they keep the cultural characteristics of Bali unchanged.
