Indonesia is archipelago of 17,508 islands (6,000 inhabited) with an amazing 54,716 kilometres of coastline. As a result, Indonesia has a huge variety of wonderful landscapes, from the terraced rice paddies of Bali to the forests of Sumatra; bizarre and diverse cultures and traditions from the primitive Dani folk to the weird Torajah area. Wherever you go in Indonesia, you are assured of calm, friendly people, wonderful food, diverse wildlife, and plenty of activities. Bali is one of the most popular holiday destinations, but despite high tourism, Bali maintains a rich and colourful Hindu heritage: relaxed and charming rural towns with beautiful rice terraces, fantastic festivals, sun drenched beaches, great restaurants and night life. Indonesia's cities are in a constant state of urban evolution, where dense populations, technology and construction live in hectic symbiosis. But most of the archipelago's territory remains unexplored, concealing a wealth of cultures and landscapes.
