Okay..We start from nyepi, nyepi is Hindu's day. In this day, you could found a different Bali. Why? because in nyepi day somebodies called as polution free day. Hahaha..because in this day, no one of bali's people hanged out. No car that operated in road, no shop, no mall and no tourism place that open. It's very agreed for you that stress about your activities. But a few information for you, that when nyepi day I Gusti Ngurah Rai airport is closed. So, if you want in Bali when Nyepi it's better you go before nyepi day. Not only that you have given, 1 week before nyepi day usually in each village in bali has any ceremonies to welcome nyepi. So you can enjoy it, in each village has different ceremony.
