Almost all the rituals and ceremonies in Bali accompanied with beautiful ornaments, music (gamelan), a beautiful and sacred dance.

Balinese people have an open attitude to the culture and people of other faiths, so they live in harmony with the community of Confucius, Buddhists, Catholics, Christians and Muslims since many year a go. You could say that Bali is a shining example of tolerance and harmony in life. Balinese people have a philosophy called "Tatwam Asi" which means: "I am you and you are me". They always remember their ancestors message about the meaning of "Unity in diversity". The existence of a difference it makes our lives richer and complement each other.
