Bali has recently been named as the best destination in the world according to American travel website company TripAdvisor.

France is one of the top three European countries that have the highest number of tourists coming to Indonesia, following after the United Kingdom. Surprisingly, 60 percent of French tourists who travel to Indonesia are from places outside of France.
