Indonesia’s famous tour destination, the resort island of Bali, has been picked by prominent US travelling reviewer website TripAdvisor as the most popular year-end destination. The latest international recognition for Bali has made Indonesia’s Tourism Minister Arief Yahya upbeat about meeting the target for number of foreign visitors this year — initially set at 12 million, Xinhua news agency reported on Friday.
The Indonesian government is now developing 10 new tour destinations across the nation, dubbed as New Bali, which are expected to compare with Bali in terms of attracting tourists.
Indonesian President Joko Widodo has previously pledged to improve budget allocation up to five times higher to further boost tourism sector which has been declared as the nation’s core business.
Bali offers diverse tourism attractions comprising adventure, underwater activities, tourism sports, cultural and traditional events and beautiful beaches.
