Bali Inquiry





If you go to Bali you are most likely to come across some of these little baskets full of flowers, rice and other small treats these baskets are called 'canang sari' they are to thank the Sang Huang Widhi Wasa for praise and prayer.



Bali schools are different to New Zealand because kids start school at the age of seven and they finish school at the age of 15 they also start the school day on the beach.


These little fish are called garrarufa fish and they eat away the hard dead skin and leave the pink healthy skin thats underneath. They are now using them to cure some foot diseases


This lady is make batik cloth this fabric is made by using a copper stamp, wax and dye to create patterns with beautiful colours and shapes. This is a traditional balinese cloth and is very beautiful.


The Saraswati temple is dedicated to the Hindu Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of learning, literature and art. It is a beautiful old temple and is an important part of Ubud in bali.
