Relief is mountainous with peaks reaching over 2000 meters where the mountain range in the center island where the volcano Agung and (3142 m). Due to the volcanic nature, fertility is exceptional and natural irrigation from these mountains, waterfalls form helps to agriculture especially rice culture. Most rice terraces are planted in the center and south of the island. In the north there are large coffee plantations. However, there are arid areas around the volcano Agung and Bukit peninsula and the island Nusa Penida are less cultivated and populated due to lack of water.

Houses are built simple but art architecture is found in Balinese religious life. In fact, the most imposing architectural works in Bali are temples. Neither the history of Balinese kings castles can not compete complexity and importance. Are built on principles and rules and stone carvings serve to enrich the appearance of temples.
Stone carvings found in the architecture of temples are more or less important. In some cases, they can also missing. While northern island temples are almost entirely made of sculpture. For example, the port of entry into temples are carved every inch with demons and idols, and one side are stone statues that "keep" entering the temple. Temple patrons are legendary heroes such as Arjuna, and which are placed on the steps of the entrance to guard the temple. Above the entrances are located "guards" stone sculptures monster chip, leaving several arms of the role of protecting the temple of demons as well. You can find sculptures of the swastika, which is the sign of prosperity and good fortune. Carved panels on the walls of temples play everyday life.

The painting is not an art practice or a particular job. The only painted temples. After the Second World War, European influences have made this job a trade. Thus, the paintings have no special originality, but have a strong Western influence. One can find some pictures from the period still unchanged Balinese art at Puri Lukisan museums and Ubud's Neka.
Balinese painting was strictly divided into three basic types: lang (sort of console are used to decorate temples and palaces), iders-iders (columns) and calendars. Most of the paintings were of a mythological narrative, stories Hindu, or literature. The paintings are two-dimensional, wayang kulit imitating theaters that have the players, dimensional leather puppets, and songs are played behind a screen cloth so that only wayang shadow puppets can be seen. Prepared natural herbal colors were specific and limited range only a few shades of brown, red, blue, and yellow. Characters are usually the same, but they are in other episodes. The landscape is usually nature with mountains, flames or just traditional reasons. Characters can be distinguished by the garments they wear and jewelry, posture and gestures, which shows the titles of kings, princes, and heroes. Negative characters have exaggerated forms or body parts enlarged canines increase, giving a picture repugnant and evil.

There are several traditional dances, car has not changed shape over time, but today in Bali dance very much to trade. Before, dances were part of the program for religious holidays, festivals and beautiful young girls dancing at the royal court.
