Sidemen is a district in the east of Bali, known for its magnificent scenery and flat ricefields.
My suggestion
Go and walk amongst the rice fields and the luxurious vegetation in the surroundings of Sidemen, the nature there is incredible and the inhabitants are very welcoming.

A town nestled amongst rice fields, in the countryside and off the beaten track, Sideman is, in my opinion, a must see on the island of Bali.
My suggestion
Don't rely on maps handed out in hotels. They're not to scale, there are roads missing and hiking trails are poorly indicated. Don't forget your sunscreen if you go out walking.
If we have loved the Island of Gods, the pearl of Indonesia, which has had such great tourist success for many years now, we can't deny that it is suffering for its fame. The environment is deteriorating year by year, mainly due to the plague of plastic which is everywhere and which the government does nothing about. Rubbish is not treated and the plastic remains.
Catch nature unawares as she wakes up...or at least that's what it feels like when you are on the wonderful 2,329 metre high Mount Bromo, on the east of the island of Java. An absolutely spectacular and unforgettable moment. If you don't appreciate nature then don't bother!
Flores and the Sunda islands in general are much less touristic that certain other destinations in Indonesia. Go there to enjoy an authentic adventure in the Indonesian archipelago.
A trip to Bali is a series of discoveries, spiritual, cultural, culinary and also of sports. Surfing is one of the attractive facets of the island. Bali with its varied beaches, of sand and of reefs, washed by warm turquoise waters, is a real surfing paradise. There are waves for all tastes and levels. So, hesitate no more and take the plunge!
