About this title

Synopsis

Bali's culture is a blend of ancient traditions and influences from the outside world, with the Balinese sense of art expressed in their art and design, architecture and music. In this book, illustrations present a view of the architecture, interiors and objects that are the essence of Bali's style. From bamboo dwellings to contemporary Bali homes, from panoramic vistas to pictures of the elaborate stonework in Hindu temples - various aspects of this distinctive culture are examined.
