Mount Tapak (1909 masl) is an inactive volcano that, although no longer erupting, still has an active magma pathway that produces geothermal heat and hot springs scattered in the southern caldera wall area, especially in the Angseri region. As the seventh highest peak in Bali, this mountain is relatively easier to climb than Mount Pohen which is just a few kilometers to the south.
Mount Tapak is mentioned in ancient manuscripts in Bali, especially the Purana Bangsul Text which states that one of the important sacred places in the Beratan area in the past was the Terate Bang (Red Lotus) in Mount Tapak. Even now, the Terate Bang temple still stands at the foot of this mountain, as well as is the northern boundary of the Bali Botanical Garden. Because it is mixed with sulfur, the taste of holy water from the spring in this temple is a bit sour which makes it unique.
The word 'tapak' means flat because the top of this mountain is relatively flat. The geothermal project which was finally stopped a few decades ago is not far from this mountain and takes geothermal heat from the magma chamber of this mountain.
Mount Tapak is one of the youngest mountains to form in the Beratan Caldera. The oldest volcanoes in the caldera are Mount Sanghyang and Mount Pohen which have been inactive for thousands of years. +

Komaneka Fine Art Gallery features unique work by artists with new and exciting visions that reflect the lifestyles of contemporary connoisseurs.
Few people realize that Komaneka Resorts began as a gallery of fine art. In 1998, the founder of Komaneka — a son of Pande Suteja Neka, founder of the Neka Museum — created Komaneka Gallery on the Monkey Forest Road, dealing with only the best of contemporary Balinese and Indonesian art.
He built residential studios and invited top artists to come live and work there. But soon he found that visitors to Bali wanted to stay there, too. Before long, he upgraded the studios to create a small hotel, Komaneka at Monkey Forest, in a tropical garden with an infinity swimming pool.
Meanwhile Komaneka Fine Art Gallery thrived, and it is still one of the most important art galleries in Bali. The gallery is a large, handsome two-story building set back from the busy Monkey Forest Road in central Ubud.
Today its artists have reached national and international renown. Among the best known names are Pande Ketut Taman, Hanafi, Putu Sutawijaya, Wayan Sudarna Putra, Suklu, and Nyoman Erawan. One of the original artists was Nyoman Masradi, whose works have sold at auction for over a million dollars +
During the covid19 period the 'Livingin-gallery' was set up.
(Ubud, Bali – November 2021) Komaneka Fine Art Gallery is excited to invite their roster of Bali-based artists to “check-in” and work inside at the Gallery space in the ‘Living in Gallery’ program. Komaneka Fine Art Gallery was founded by Koman Suteja in 1998 and its mission is to showcase the richness of Indonesian art with a focus on emerging and established Balinese painters.
Koman Suteja and his wife Mansri Trisniawati started this ‘Living in Gallery’ after the Covid-19 lockdown that restricted the gallery from opening to the public. It affected the artists as well because it halted their exhibition plans. Because the Gallery had to close, Koman says it “brought back memories to the original ideas of the space in the gallery and why it was created. Why don’t we invite the artists to use the Gallery?”
‘Living in Galery’ program invites artists to ‘reside’ and create in the Gallery’s second floor, which is 200m2 wide. The artist is allowed a total of 24 hours to work, which can be split into different days. Because each artist has different styles and processes, they are able to customize the space to look like their studio, play the music they want and have the gallery open or closed to the public.
Each artist was briefed beforehand so they came to the Gallery with a set of ideas specifically, which excited the artists because the lockdown halted a lot of their projects and exhibitions. The artists responded well to the initiative as it gave them a good challenge that pushed them to do something different during this pandemic.
After the artist’s ‘residency’ at the Gallery, the paintings are displayed in the gallery space. Once a month Koman’s wife Mansri arranges ‘The Artist Lunch’ which allows art lovers, connoisseurs and collectors to come together to the Gallery, admire the art, talk to the artist personally and have lunch together at Komaneka Rasa Sayang.
Each ‘Living in Gallery’ session will utilize the technology and showcase the gallery digitally. The Gallery website will be updated with new paintings every month and the process will be recorded live on social media.
The purpose of this program is close to Koman’s heart. “I was born in a family who are very close to art and the center of the Indonesian art movement. It started from my grandparents, I Wayan Neka, who was a sculptor and my father, Wayan Suteja Neka, who was the patron of modern art in Indonesia.
My father invited a lot of Indonesian master artists to live in Ubud, rent them a house and work closely together with my father Wayan Suteja Neka. I met all of the master Indonesian artists which is a special opportunity. With this program, I want to share the experience of working closely with artists of my generation.”

Legian Village currently cover the same (geographical) area, consisting of 3 banjars. In the traditional village “wewengkon”, the three banjars are the SukaDuka Banjar Legian Kaja, Legian Tengah (Pekandelan) and Legian Kelod.
Bordered by the Seminyak Village area in the north and Kuta Village in the south, this area is adjacent to the river (Tukad Mati) and rice fields. Legian Village is known as a tourism area which is equipped with many tourism facilities including entertainment centers. In addition, Legian Village also has a very beautiful beach which is the main tourist destination for tourists.
Based on history, Legian village began with the discovery of a Otaheite gooseberry that tastes sweet. This is unusual because Otaheite gooseberry generally have a sour taste. Since then, the village area is called Karang Kemanisan.
The name Karang Kemanisan is known from the utterances of the "sadeg patih" (humans who are used as mediators for Ida Bhatara) who are trance when religious ceremonies are carried out at the Legian Village temple. They often say "Damuh Karang Kemanisan".
The name Karang Kemanisan also contains the philosophy of future generations who occupy the place to always maintain harmony in attitude and behavior and maintain the beauty of nature and its environment. So that they can be blessed with prosperity and well-being. Over time the name Karang Kemanisan was changed to Legian. The word legian comes from the root word "legi" which also means sweet. In the Old Javanese language, legi also means sweet.
The Taksu Murti Kemanisan Art Studio in Legian then performed artistic performances including the composition of the Legian Manis Bebarongan Tabuh, the Rerejangan Upasaksi Dance, the Tri Taksu Creation Dance and the Telek Dance according to the characteristics of the Legian Traditional Village. This dance was even performed at the 41st Bali Arts Festival (PKB).
Now Legian Village continues to improve. Apart from being a fisherman, most Legian residents make a living from the tourism sector. Like working in a hotel or opening an art shop. The area around Legian is also well organized so that it makes tourists who want to visit comfortable.
Desa Les is a seaside village of 8,000 on the northeast coast of Bali. A Bali Moela village, it differs from its neighbors in that there is no caste and ceremonies, while still Hindu, are much simpler than in other parts of Bali.
Les is an agricultural village where mangoes, coconuts, and rambutan flourish, and the sea of course provides a bounty of fish and salt. The Yeh Mampeh waterfall provides the precious water needed by people in Les, but it is not enough to cover daily needs and irrigation.
Due to its location being north of the mountains ergo little rainfall comes
here, the soil can be quite dry. Many of the men (pre pandemic) went down south to work in the construction industry, and several of the young people went to work on cruiseships.
The majority of the people here live day to day, in simple houses with not too many amenities. The education level reached by many is only at the Junior High (SMP) level.
In spite of all this, it is a wonderful place to visit. There is a boardwalk by the sea where one can walk past the working salt farms and see the colorful boats of the fishermen and the underwater life is still stunning. +
Located on Ubud’s bustling Main Road (Jalan Raya), between Ubud Palace and Museum Puri Lukisan, Cafe Lotus has been an institution ever since it opened its doors in 1983. The atmosphere of the town may have undergone changes but the tradition of Balinese hospitality has been maintained.
Over the past 37 years the restaurant has been welcoming guests from all over the world; some have been visiting us on a regular basis, even several times during their stays. It is a custom we appreciate and it represents a continuous challenge for us..
The setting of Cafe Lotus is unique – even by Balinese standards: a large Lotus pond framed by ancient lowering kamboja (magnolia) trees and, our most recent addition, an exhibit of several dozens of blooming orchid plants. One of Ubud’s main temple complexes, Pura Taman Kemuda Saraswati, completes the scenery; the ambience is simply magical – especially during twilight hours and in the evenings.
Cafe Lotus has become on of Ubud’s landmarks, an oasis in a busy environment and even more so a centre of Balinese of culture. The restaurant comes highly recommended by guidebooks worldwide and it deserves to be included on your next visit to Bali. Contrary information in some guide books we are a full-service restaurant and not just a nice place “pour rendre un verre” (to have a drink); while we certainly welcome all, preferential seating is reserved for dinner guests after 6.30pm.
We are looking forward to welcoming you at Cafe Lotus when your travels bring you to Ubud. +

"Back in 2004 Muntigunung was one of the poorest areas in Bali. It was rather inhospitable – simple bamboo huts dotted a dry, brown landscape that had nothing in common with the lush, tropical, touristy South of Bali. Families had no access to water and had to walk for an average of four hours just to fetch water. There were hardly any employment opportunities and the intense long dry season prevented the cultivation of agricultural produce for most of the year. This forced many women and children of Muntigunung to beg in the tourist areas in the south of the island to ensure their survival. As many people in the community relied on income from begging, they used their children as “emotional sales support” with the consequence that these children didn’t attend school, resulting in a continuous cycle of illiteracy and poverty.
A Holistic, Sustainable Approach
In 2006, in an effort to provide a more sustainable and brighter future for the Muntigunung community, Future for Children – a Swiss backed NGO, together with Yayasan Dian Desa, initiated the Muntigunung Community Development Program.
By working alongside the community, specially designed roofs were constructed to harvest and store rainwater in tanks to provide a year-round water supply. After securing and maintaining clean water for every household, the aim was to support the community in accessing healthcare and education and creating employment and economic opportunities through social enterprises. Over the course of several years, child mortality was reduced from 9% to 0%, sanitary facilities were built by the community and access to public healthcare and education facilitated. Three social enterprises were established to develop the area’s economy: Muntigunung Community Social Enterprise (Food), Muntigunung Community Social Handicrafts Enterprise and Muntigunung Trekking.
Today, the buildings initially built to harvest rainwater not only provide water, but also function as communal spaces for the residents and production centers for the social enterprises to process food products and produce handicrafts."

From Lonely Planet:
Artist Adrien-Jean Le Mayeur de Merpres (1880–1958) arrived in Bali in 1932, and married the beautiful Legong dancer Ni Polok three years later, when she was just 15. They lived in this compound back when Sanur was still a quiet fishing village. After the artist’s death, Ni Polok lived in the house until she died in 1985. Despite security (some of Le Mayeur's paintings have sold for US$150,000) and conservation problems, almost 90 of Le Mayeur's paintings are displayed.
The house is an interesting example of Balinese-style architecture – notice the beautifully carved window shutters that recount the story of Rama and Sita from the Ramayana. The museum has a naturalistic Balinese interior of woven fibres. Some of Le Mayeur’s early works are impressionist paintings from his travels in Africa, India, the Mediterranean and the South Pacific. Paintings from his early period in Bali are romantic depictions of daily life and beautiful Balinese women – often Ni Polok. The works from the 1950s are in much better condition, displaying the vibrant colours that later became popular with young Balinese artists. Look for the haunting black-and-white photos of Ni Polok. +

As a millennial, I am willing to develop my village through BASAbali Village Wikithon Public Participation Program. Let's see what is in my village.
Friends, do you know a place called Art Village? This is my village, Desa Mas, which is located in the sub-district of Ubud, Gianyar Regency. In my village, there is a program for converting plastic waste into cash or rice. This program is very good for building the beauty of the village and helping the village community.
That's how it is, my friends. Hopefully the government will help or support programs like this by providing assistance in the form of operational budget funds.
Hopefully this video will entertain all of you. If there is a wrong word please forgive. (Klungkung Semarapura, Kirang langkung nunas ampura).

Do you know there are no rivers in Denpasar? This is a river from Kesiman Village, named Bindu River. This river already has a management party and has been inaugurated by the local government. If you enter this river area, you are not charged the price of admission, but there is voluntary funds that can be given as much as possible. The place is cool, beautiful and charming.

As a millennial, I am ready to develop my village through the Wikithon Public Participation #5 BASAbali Wiki. Let's look at to my village.
Hello friends, I am Dewa Ayu Manis and these are my friends, Desak Maharani and Yuli Setiawati. I would like to introduce you to the potential of villages in Banjar Pemenang, Nyalian Village, Banjarangkan District, Klungkung Bali.
Friends, don't you know? In Nyalian Village, there are craftspeople who make “capil” hats, which are made from the leaves of a young “demela” coconut tree. The way to make them is a bit complicated, but the price of this capil hat is very low. This business has existed for generations in the village, and no other village makes them.
I will let you know, there are problems felt by these craftspeople. The raw materials are difficult to find and the hats are not well promoted. The hope of the craftspeople is that the price of these capil hats can be increased so that they can help develop them as small-medium enterprises at the provincial level and also make them a village icon.
Hopefully from this video, the government can help in developing villages, especially in fostering the potential of working groups. Hopefully the government can help provide financial assistance or or other support to village development such as promoting this product overseas.
