SIGHTS
OF SAMARINDA
Some
of the TOP Hotels in Bali
Bali's
most famous and crowded resort is Kuta beach, a six-kilometre
sweep of golden sand, with plenty of accommodation,
shops and nightlife. Nearby Sanur is much quieter, but
most backpackers prefer the beaches of peaceful east-coast
Candi Dasa and traveller-oriented Lovina on the north
coast. The island's other major destination is the cultural
centre of Ubud , a still charming but undeniably commercialized
overgrown village, where traditional dances are staged
every night of the week and the streets are full of
arts-and-crafts galleries.

city to Seberang in a tambangan (taxiboat) Rp50, or
Rp500 per motorbike which you can drive over a road

Idris. Many designs and colors to choose from. There
are at least 150 special looms (gedokan) in the village.
Picturesque patchwork hills like Italian hill country
are found behind Samarinda. Climb the hills N.E. of
Samarinda for a fabulous view and a good look at the
completely ravaged timber concessions. There's a beautiful
Bugis kampung up there too, if you can find it.
