Nonetheless, this beach is very beautiful, with very clean water, clean white sands and quite beach, not so many people in this beach. There are many coconut trees around the beach. Bias Tugal Beach is a beautiful white sandy beach and the best beach in Padang Bai. Good for swimming, though the currents can be strong. There are several restaurants, but they are not very good. The beach is surrounded by a monstrous, unfinished resort.
When I swim at Bias Tugal beach. I was see sweet lips of box fish, clown fish, cleaner fish, octopuses, moray eels, stingrays, lion fish and all kinds of tropical marine life.

Although it is in the ocean, the water ripples are excellent for canoeing. View of the beach is very beautiful. And for spiritualists, they will feel comfortable of being on the beach. Pandawa Beach is a tourist attraction located at Kutuh village, South Kuta, Badung. The white sandy beach is crowded by travelers with daily average of 10,000 people. And at the end of 2014 and welcoming the year 2015, it hosted the Pandawa Beach Festival and could draw abundant tourist arrivals.
Most visitors consisted of domestic travelers. In addition to enjoying the view of high seas, travelers also took advantage of the Pandawa’s statue (Yudhisthira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula and Sahadewa) situated in the cave as the backdrop of their photograph. The activity of seaweed farmers, blue water to high cliffs fortifying the coast could also become the background of their picture.
However, from the existing tourist attractions, canoeing is the most favorite. Within a day, tourists can rent a canoe for hours, due to having fun. On that account, of the 66 canoe business owners, each have an average of 2 to 6 pieces of canoe and are always busy serving customers. “Playing canoe becomes a favorite tourist attraction on Pandawa Beach,” said Nyoman Camang, secretary of Kutuh village, accompanied by coordinator of beach lifeguard, Made Letera.

A regular-size canoe could carry two or more persons. “Pandawa Beach does not provide banana boat or jet ski attraction because it tends to be risky and generate marine pollution to local seaweed farming,” he said.
Made Letera added that other than canoe, his party also rented long chair having high demand. A total of 200 pieces of long chair were provided and it was always fully booked. A long chair was offered at IDR 50,000 per hour.

Cremation in India, `Ngaben` in Bali



From behind a fence of blackened sticks at the Ganges riverbank in the ancient city of Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, northern India, I watched the body of a deceased older woman being burned down to almost nothing.
As the heat of the scorching fire filled the air, I lifted a corner of my shirt to my nose against the smoke, wincing.
Hair white and whisked, lips pursed and dry, eyes closed and perfectly still, the body smoldered down to a blackened pelvis, prodded with the fire tender’s pole.
“The men burn all the way down to rib cages, while the women burn all the way down to pelvises. In the end, those things are all that's left,” a trying guide had tempted me with details.
“The river bed is full of them – pelvises and rib cages,” he added.
In the same month, I witnessed another cremation being held eight thousands kilometers away on the island of Bali in Indonesia.
