Today, my destination is Nusa Penida, a famous island of Indonesia
To get to Nusa Penida, I'll have to take a 'speed boat' with the ticket fee of around 600,000 VND
And it will take about 35 minutes to get us there
My boat will leave at 7:20 so I still have time for breakfast
See you in Nusa Penida
Where I'm standing is called Atuh beach, and the beach right over there is called Diamond beach
"Why diamond?" you may ask, it's all because of the huge diamond-shaped rock over there
The beaches are totally free to visit, but other services may
Such as the treehouses, which I'll show you later, and other artificial scenes for photo taking
Here it is, the famous Kelingking beach of Nusa Penida
My jaw was literally dropped for this breathtaking beauty
This beach is way more beautiful than it looks on photos
Personally, this is so far the most remarkable and beautiful beach I have ever been to
Standing here makes me feel like I'm riding on the back of a dinosaur
and that's its head
There are plenty of tourists taking in this area
But we still can have stunning photos without any interference
as there are many beautiful corners for us to choose
And of course, you should come here before it gets more crowded
This is my last destination today, the Broken beach
Up till now, I've visited 4 or 5 places in Nusa Penida and I love all of them
it's all because of the fresh air and unreal and heaven-like scenes of this island
More importantly, tourists like me love this island for its non-artificial and natural beauty
The prices here are quite reasonable and inexpensive, like the entrance fee of some locations
and for taking photos at the artificial scenes
the food is inexpensive as well
My tour includes a driver so I can ask him to take me to anywhere I want
Since this island is really big, visiting 4 to 5 places a day is already impressive
I think you should spend 2 or 3 days on this island for visiting other places
I'm so deeply in love with this island
I've experienced so much on this trip
Comparing this island with other cities of Bali
like Ubud, a city known as the center for traditional crafts, dance and historical landmarks
Other cities like Kuta or Denpasar are not really impressive as they are crowded, bustle, and full of shopping centers and stores
In short, Nusa island is my top choice for a beach trip or for enjoying the scenes of nature
I will definitely come back here to visit more places
Though Ubud Traditional Art Market is just a regular local market, it's the most recommended market in Bali
Goods in this market are said to have better quality and better prices than other markets in Bali
As the name already says, this market sells various types of art product, from souvenirs, traditional dresses, sculpture artifacts
to handmade dream-catchers like these, all of them are really pieces of art
I'm now at Ubud's Art market
I really like this market as there are many beautiful and delicate local handicrafts
I'm really happy with this dream-catcher I've just bought
Really stunning
There are many other beautiful products here Really stunning
There are many other beautiful products here
Such as the Buddha statues made from wood or copper, and fabric with Indonesia's unique pattern
There are so many things to buy here
Other people in my group have bought a lot already
The plan was spending only 1 hour in this market but we've stayed here for nearly 2 and a half hour just for buying souvenir for our friends
From my experience, we should negotiate the price down to 1/3 of the price they tell us
The vendors here are quite nice, they won't get upset if we don't buy anything
I really appreciate the goods quality in this market, they all are delicate handicrafts
promising to be unique souvenir for our friendsv
I'm not so good at negotiating, don't be like me!
I tried to get the price cut down for over half but it's still expensive
In this episode of Quang Vinh Passport, we get to see him negotiates with the vendors... and fails
He's quite upset now
So many beautiful products here
All of them are handicrafts, I wonder how much time it takes to make these
I really like these chips, they are all mine, none of you will have the share, jk
We have here a dish of goreng noodle, and some grilled chicken skewer
I'm here at Tanah Lot Temple, one of the most important and famous destination in Bali
Tourists come here for the breathtaking scene and the sacred temple
People believe there's a spiritual connection between the snakes in this area with the temple
as they are the temple's protectors
We can spend about 60,000 VND for touching the snakes as they are believe to be able to grant wishes
The last time I was here, I came to another temple over there
But we have to wait for the tide to ebb down to get there
In that temple, we can find holy water
By spending a little money, we can use that water to wash our faces
or our hands to purify ourselves and cleanse out the bad luck
Look at the sand on this beach, it's black
This is also called a volcanic beach
It's 3 AM and I'm at Batur mountain, the second highest mountain in Bali
I've never had trekking in my videos, this will be the first one and also my challenge
Trekking at 3 AM for 2 hours to get to the mountain top and view the sun rises
Are you excited like I am? Let's go!
The bus will pick us up at the hotel at 1:30 AM and arrive at the mountain at 2:30
I was surprised as there are so many other trekkers, at it's freezing now, the temperature is only 18°C
Local guide will explain the map and provide us with flashlights and coats if needed, the trek will start at 3 AM
I can still vividly remember the beauty of the dark sky full of stars
We talked a lot at first but soon got tired and stopped talking, just focused on the road
With flashlights on our hands, we tried to pass through the toughest paths
The path was so narrow that we got stuck in a "traffic jam"
as there were too many trekkers like us and we are only 2 steps away from each other
After over 1 hour of trekking, we reached the first stop where we bought water and took a rest
From here, the mountain top seemed much closer
However, the hard part was only started, there were slopes that our eyes can be covered by the one before us
The higher we got, the tougher the path is
At 5 AM, we reached the second stop and "recharged" ourselves with snacks and water
Around 5:30, the sun slowly showed itself through the cloud in the trekkers' applause
I still don't know whether the applause was for the nature beauty or for our hard work
Though the road was hard and rough, standing on the mountain top and seeing the sun rise, I didn't feel tired any longer
After 2 hours of trekking, I finally arrive at the top
And the poetic scene right here is really worth the effort
The path was really rough and sloped, I literally saw the other's foot in front of my head
But this scene's worth it all
