In Assouline's impressive coffee-table book "Bali Mystique," Elora, a born-and-raised Balinese architect, invites the reader to explore her personal version of Bali. In the book, Elora has absorbed the importance of merging art and technology, past and future, man and nature.
Surfing paradise, tropical jewel, center of bamboo architecture: the "Island of the Gods" Bali has it all. This Indonesian island attracts millions of visitors each year with its unparalleled appeal. Offering a unique blend of spiritual meditation and lively entertainment, Bali's energy transcends the stereotype of a peaceful oasis. Local culture is ubiquitous, with offerings, temples and ceremonies on every street corner. In addition, Bali offers luxury beach resorts and vibrant nightlife.
With black sand beaches, impressive volcanoes and countless waterfalls, Bali's natural beauty is breathtaking. The island's abundance of bamboo encouraged the development of bamboo architecture, which is now widespread. Cliffside villas, endless rice terraces and a vibrant surfing community paint a colorful picture of Bali, complete with the friendliness and hospitality of the locals.
