Besides having a good stay in the hotel, they also have good time doing cultural activities arranged by the hotel. Bali is closely related to traditional culture and cultural activity seems to be a magical influence to attract foreigners to come and visit Bali.  Balinese dancing lesson is one of the most-wanted cultural activities here in Bali and captures many tourists’ attention. Even if the activity is held in a village, they will be very happy doing it. Having warm welcome and meeting friendly people in the village amaze them so much.
