The beautiful place that Bali is, it is not possible to see all the sights within a day. Extended and multi-day tours are very popular among the tourists of Bali. The two day tour from Java includes the Yogyakarta and Borobudur Temple and you also get to see a little of everything. Temples, UNESCO heritage sites, lush landscapes and even the Sultan’s palace where the most powerful royal family of Java lives. This is just one of the many multi day tours. The tours can also be themed, for example, a tour of national parks, or a tour of heritage sites and temples.
Cooking Classes:
![Cooking Classes are a Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/cooking-class.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)
Bali offers tourists an altogether different culinary experience. Tourists can choose one meal of the day, and be instructed by a local chef to prepare your own, Balinese food. Some of the favourites that you can learn to cook are fried bananas, coconut pancakes and other authentic Balinese food. You can visit organic markets, which are very common on the island to pick out the ingredients for your meal.

One for the history buffs:
USS Liberty Shipwreck:
![USS Lberty Shipwreck - A Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/shipwreck.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)
Other than being one of the most famous dive sites in all of Bali, the USS Liberty Shipwreck is the best preserved shipwrecks off the coast of the island.

Agung in 1963.
Tirta Gangga:
![Tirta Gangga - A Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/gangga.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)
Literally translating into “water from the Ganges”, Tirta Gangga is famous for it’s water castle built by the Raja of Karangasem, Anak Agung Agung Anglurah Ketut Karangasem (it’s ok if you can’t pronounce it) in 1948. Though part of it was destroyed in 1963 during the eruption of Mt. Agung, it has been authentically rebuilt to its former magnificence.
Lempad House:
![Lempad sculptures are a Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/lempad.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)

Pura Penataran Sasih
![Pura Penataran Sasih - An ancient Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/PuraPenataranSasih01.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)
Pura Penataran Sasih is a temple rich in history and holds many questions that have kept historians wondering for many years. Once the state temple of the Pejeng Kingdom, it houses a huge bronze drum called the Fallen Moon of Pejeng. This drum holds the record for the largest single-piece cast drum in the world. It has also been determined to be around 1000-2000 years old. Researchers are not sure weather the drum was made in the Pejeng Kingdom, or if it was imported from another part of the world. Though the drum is the main attraction, do not miss the courtyard, which dates back to the 10th and 12th century.
Tebing Tegallinggah Temple (Gianyar)

Waterfalls
Aling-Aling Waterfall
![Aling-Aling Falls - -A Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/aling-aling-waterfalls2.png?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)
The Aling-Aling Waterfall is approximately 35 meters above the ground and is unique in its own way. The top of the waterfall is divided into two, and the waterfalls to the ground as 2 side by side waterfalls. (Maybe that’s why it’s called Aling-Aling waterfall and not just Aling Waterfall). The water falling down makes a basin pond of about 4 meters in depth, where people can swim or just enjoy the freshwater from the waterfall.
Nungnung waterfall:
![Nungnung Falls - A Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/nung.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)

To reach the waterfall, tourists have to climb down a number of stairs and see the waterfall from close range. After the trek, tourists can either chill out on the sofas provided or have a little snack from the locals. The atmosphere is very cool, thanks to the water discharge from the falls being strong.

Sekumpul waterfall:
![Sekumpul falls: A 7 in 1 Bali tourist attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/Sekumpul.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)

Gitgit Waterfall:
![Gitgit Falls- A respite for monkeys and a Bali Tourist Attraction](https://pyt-blogs.imgix.net/2017/06/git.jpg?auto=format&ixlib=php-3.3.0)
