Offering a truly unique cultural experience, Garuda Wisnu Kencana is an impressive statue of the Hindu God Wisnu (Vishnu) that is well worth seeing when on a sightseeing trip in Bali. Look to stay at a Bali luxury spa resort which makes an ideal base for your holiday to this tropical paradise. An ideal option would be a Bali spa resort such as COMO Shambhala Estate Bali by the River Ayung which offers an idyllic getaway from which to begin your excursions.
Plan a trip to Garuda Wisnu Kencana or GWK which can be found around 20 minutes away from the Nusa Dua harbour. Made from brass and copper, this striking creation showcases Lord Wisnu on the back of a mythical bird known as Garuda. The statute itself can be found within a cultural park which features a range of sites that are well worth seeing such as the Festival Park, Lotus Pond and the Street Theatre. There are dance performances held at the site as well and are well worth witnessing in order to get a better insight into local culture and traditions.
