Vulcano at Kuta Beach
Have you ever heard about the Vulcano Pizza at Kuta
beach? It’s amazing what the Pizza specialists in Papa’s
Limoncello are able to create. The Vulcano Pizza is a must
try when you stay in Bali. It is shaped like a Vulcano and on
the table it will burn like a Vulcano. Inside the “Vulcano” you
will find a large variety of ingredients. Although you share
the pizza with your friend you won’t go home hungry. No
wonder that the Vulcano Pizza is decorated with an award
as best main course in Bali. And the Vulcano pizza is not
the only excellent dish at Papa’s Limoncello.
The distinguished Seafood Platter we must also highlight
the delicious Pasta dishes or the admirable Desserts. Pa-
pa’s Limoncellos team take full care that all operations are
done in an environment-sparing way. Chef Stefano and his
team strictly don’t use any MSG or other artificial additives,
with the result that all meals have the authentic and origi-
nal taste of Italy. Papa’s Limoncello is the loveliest Italian
restaurant we have visited in Bali. It’s easy to find. From
Beachwalk at Kuta you just follow the beach road and after
800 meter you will find Papa’s Limoncello on the right side.

Uluwatu is one of Bali’s most sacred places of worship. This temple
is a classic example of traditional Balinese architecture. You can feed
the monkeys, but watch out they can be greedy.
Enjoy the inspiring view of the cliffs and if you are lucky, you may
spot some dolphins or turtles in the sea below. Sunset is definitely
the time to visit Uluwatu, a place that is also known for its Kecak
Dancers.

PREFACE
In prevailing circumstances, the business environment surround-
ing the aviation and airport industries is changing rapidly. In view of
the increased global competition between airports, Angkasa Pura
Airports must strengthen and fortify its functions to establish its
position as a key domestic and international hub. We are currently
managing 13 airports throughout central and eastern Indonesia,
one of the main airports is Ngurah Rai Bali International Airport. In
aggregate, our total number of customers for 2012 reached 65.5
million passengers, an increase of 13.8% compared to the previ-
ous year.
With a view of competing with other major airports in Asia to attract services and recognizing the fact that
the passengers favorite airports are ultimately the airlines choice. Angkasa Pura Airports will aim to meet
the distinctively polarized and diverse needs of the aviation market.
Terminal building capacity at Ngurah Rai Bali International Airport is undergoing expansion now and we
will seek to give a fresh new look to our commercial facilities by attracting new tenants and improving the
environment. This will be done by taking into account the characteristics and shop composition of our
existing commercial facilities.
The construction of the new Ngurah Rai Bali International terminal building will increase the airports
capacity by up to 25 million passengers a year. This Ngurah Rai project is targeted to be operational by
October 2013, by expanding its capacity from 80.000m2 to 190.000m2. As this airport facilitaties the
cross-border flow of goods and people, we will strive to stay abreast with the growth in aviation demand
and to provide high standards of safety and service. We also pursue new business opportunities on the
core of our existing business to achieve corporate growth.
Angkasa Pura Airports are committed to ensuring safe and functional airport operations. We will continue
to strive and become an attractive airport with the advantages of being trusted and preferred by travelers,
airlines, other customers using our airport or with whom we work with.

Bali – The Place With Highest Temple Density In The World
Without a doubt, there is no other place in the
world with a temple density higher than the one
in Bali. Even for Balinese it is partially very hard
to figure out the history or meaning of a special
temple as we have many myths and stories be-
hind them, from time to time 3 and more. This has
something to do with the fact that different villages
have shared bigger temples and every village has
developed over a longer period of time an own
story.
A legend about Gunung Kawi for example, a tem-
ple containing different tombs which are carved
into the mountain and reminding more to a South
American Maya Temple located in an undiscov-
ered lush green jungle area, then a Balinese tradi-
tion temple, tells it was carved from a giant within
one night. Another interesting story we hear about
Lempuyang temple. It is not documented when
Lempuyang Temple was exactly built but legends
say that when mother earth was only 70 years old,
the island of Bali was unstable and earthquakes
happened daily.
The god Pacupati, who resides in Mount Sumeru
saw this condition and asked his three children to
stabilize Bali. He sent Hyang Gni Jaya, Hyang Pu-
tra Jaya and Dewi Danu to Bali to reside in three
different places; Dewi Danu on Mount Batur, Hy-
ang Putra Jaya on Mount Agung, and Hyang Gni
Jaya in Lempuyang Luhur Temple. This legend
bears a resemblance to the one we know from
Mount Batur. = already corrected!!! Or the story
about Batukaru Temple. A Balinese King named
Panji Sakit, who wanted to expand his empire,
attacked Batukaru. For some reason Panji Sakit
also wanted to damage Batukaru Temple.
As soon as he had started to damage the temple,
the King and his soldiers were attacked by thou-
sands and thousands of bees and their mission
failed. Serious documentations about temples
can be found in “Lontars”, which are palm leaf
manuscripts in Asia. The oldest existing ones date
back to 500 BC, the oldest ones in Bali, shown at
@ Uluwatu Temple
@ Tanah Lot Temple
32

Lontar Museum Gedong Kirtya, are… years old.
Gedong Kirtya is the only museum in the world
which shows a Lontar collection. It is interesting
to hear that some names are always mentioned in
the Lontars when it comes up to temples. Regard-
ing to these old manuscripts Dang Hyang Nirartha
is one of them. Dang Hyang Nirartha was a chief
counselor of a Javanese King. He felt in Love with
one of the patrons wife and had to leave Java in
1537.
After arriving in Bali he was the founder of the three
temple system in Bali. Every village still follows this
philosophy and the temple for Brahma (the god of
creation) is facing the mountain, the Vishnu temple
(the maintainer and protector) is based in the mid-
dle of the village and for Shiva (the destroyer) the
temple is facing the ocean.
Also the Lontars tell about Mpu Kuturan, a travel-
ling priest. Batukaru Temple, the Shrines at Ulu-
watu temple or Bat cave temple are attributed
to him. If you are now interest in temples and a
Bali Newbi, we highly recommend to see Bratan
Temple. It is located on the shores of Bratan lake
about 1240 meters above the sea level. The cli-
mate there is already completely different and the
area invites you for a stroll or some watersports.
A perfect place to go for everybody. Monkey Lov-
ers should not miss to see Uluwatu temple, a cliff
edged temple with plenty of wildlife monkeys. If
you are travelling with kids, definitely go there.
A wide range of temples and stories can be found
on: www.travellingbali.com
To all those who like to explore Bali’s temples on
there own it is highly recommended to download

GPS navigation to all main attractions.

Every fast developing tourist destination in the
world has two sides to its blades.
The first area, and surely the most popular one, is
known asa mass tourism place such as Kuta or
Seminyak. Everyone who has stayed in Bali will
have experienced at least one of these areasand
seen the Bali Lifestyle in that region.
On the other hand what about the other side of
the Keris’s blade? Has everyone that has stayed
in Kuta, made a trip to Bali’s northern part to see
the National park or have they been to Singaraja,
Lovina or Candi Dasa?
Unfortunately it is sad but true that plenty of the
tourists coming to the island of the gods only see
it as a low cost island with great opportunities for
food and spa treatments.
The following article is aimed at all those people
whoso farhaven’t heard or have ignored Bali’s
other side, the wonderful culture, the outstanding
fauna and flora and the opportunity to chill out in a
segregated area. It is directed at all those who are
looking for a chance to take great walks, hikes or
cycling tours in a cool, fresh area that is 1,500me-
ters or moreabove sea level in an outstanding
mountainous area. It has been written for all those
who are looking for an opportunity to see wild
dolphins, buffalo races, deer or fantastic marina
wildlife in some of the great snorkeling areas that
are just waiting to be explored.
Last but by no means least this article is ad-
dressed to all those people who want to cross
the Kuta or Seminyak boarder and increase their
knowledge by experiencing the second face of
Bali (side or the other side of the Keris), the tra-
ditional and original face (side)! We hope you are
one of these people.
In the regency of Karangasem in the north west
of Bali, lies Candi Dasa, it’s a great place to stay
overnight and the perfect placetostart explora-
tions of the many cultural highlights which are
nestled around this area. In addition to this, Candi
Dasa has some extremely charming restaurants,
such as the “Lotus Sea view Restaurant”, which
offers a wonderful ocean view and the perfect
place to have Dinner. Close to Candi Dasa, nes-
tled in the hills around this area, you can find Ten-
ganan village.
The traditions and practices of this village may
sound very strange to you but isn’t it worth see-
ing a village where only the inhabitants are allowed
to marry each other andvisitors of the village are
prohibited from staying overnight?
The Taman Ujung Water palace, Winner of tri-
padvisor’s “Travellers’ Choice Award 2013”, Tirta
Gangga the former Royal Palace of Krangasem,
rated on tripadvisor 4.5/5 and Lempuyang Temple
one of Bali’s 9 key directional temples that faces
a variety of lakes, mountains and oceans are also
located close to Candi Dasa and should not be
missed during your trip. Even if youhave already
booked your hotel in Bali, it is worth taking a driver
and staying overnight in Candi Dasa, a wonderful
place located on the northeast coast of Bali.

Another place which is highly recommended for
an overnight stay is Lovina. The name of this neat
city is derived from the word ‘lovely’ in Indonesian,
which already speaks for itself. Lovina is very pop-
ular for dolphin watching which usually starts at 6
o’clock in the morning. For this reason alone an
overnight stay in Lovina is already highly recom-
mended. The Northern area is also very popular
for its unique hot springs. The Banjar Hot Spring
for example is operated professionally, provides
lockers and changing rooms and is great fun to
spend some time in the lovely warm water, which
is roughly 38 degrees.This environment is very
family friendly and a great day out if you are travel-
ling with kids. In addition to this, all the hot springs
have, due to the sulfurous water, a healing charac-
ter. Furthermore, plenty of wonderful waterfalls,
such as the Gitgit waterfall, with their fresh water
poolsgive you the opportunity to take a dip and
cool down whilst on your day trip. The following
Tour with an overnight stay away from the hus-
tle and bustle in the south, combines as does the
previous recommendation, great things to see in
Bali with a family friendly environment, the follow-

Mother Temple, also named Besakih Temple or
Pura Besakih Bali, is located in the village of Be-
sakih (Rendang Sub-district, Karangasem) right at
the foot of Mount Agung, in the eastern part of
Bali.
As its name already states, it is the mother of all
temples and not just one of Bali’s most impor-
tant temples; it is the most important one in Bali!
Besakih Temple is located about 1,000 meters
above sea level and finally it is the highest sub-
stantial public temple complex.
Besakih Temple dates back to about the 10th
century (the same age as Tirta Empul Temple)
and is actually a complex consisting of about 30
singular temples, with hundreds of shrines, dedi-
cated to the helpers of the gods.
When you have finally reached Pura Penataran
Agung Besakih, the highest temple of the Mother
Temple complex, you will be rewarded with un-
imaginable views and a fabulous, spiritual feeling.
Obviously, the most marvellous things in Bali also
have a reverse side to the coin. As the Mother
Temple is a very popular tourist place, you will be
asked for money at every single corner. A guide
offers his knowledge here, a seller his products
there and obviously you have to pay for the en-
trance as well. Additionally you will probably get
forced to buy a Sarong for 50 USD which is 3-4
times of the real value.
Before you enter the temple complex, Besakih
Temple can easily become annoying, especially if
you can’t handle pushy people. As Besakih tem-
ple plays such a big role in Balinese tradition and it
is a tremendous and imposing complex it is there-
fore hard to say:
“If you can’t handle these situations, stay
away from Pura Besakih and see other major
temples on Bali such as Pura Luhur Uluwatu
(Uluwatu Temple) or Tirta Empul Temple (Pura
Tirta Empul) just to name a few” but unfortunately
this is a fact. Although for those who don’t mind
at all and make this tour to Bali’s holiest temple
will explore a terrific complex with stunning views
from the top level!

Balangan Beach is located in the Bukit, in the
south west of Bali. This place is a real hidden gem
and “The Golden Sand Area” is well worth a visit.
Situated under a massive cliff, Balangan Beach is
not easy to find but precisely for this reason this
wonderful beauty offers nearly full privacy. Apart
from some surfers who enjoy the fantastic waves
in this area you will only meet some other tourists
who found this place by coincidence.
A public parking place on top of the cliff is pro-
vided and the access to Balangan Beach is very
easy, you just have to handle the stairs down the
cliff to the beach. Because of the massive waves,
Balangan Beach is not highly recommended for
swimming but offers another opportunity which is
rare to find somewhere else in Bali, a romantic cliff
edge wedding with stunning sunset views!
In case you plan to get married, Balangan Cliff will
make the most important day in your life simply
unforgettable. Wedding agents in Bali offer cer-
emonies in every price class. Starting from around
2,000 USD and the sky is the limit. In case you
haven’t booked your hotel yet, basic accommo-
dation around Balangan Beach is provided for as
little as 20 USD.
The rooms are obviously not equipped with an air
conditioner but those who are happy with only a
fan can make staying around Balangan Beach a
real bargain. Day Trips to Balangan Beach can be
perfectly combined with a visit of Uluwatu Tem-
ple (cliff edge temple) which is very popular for its
wild monkeys. In case you are travelling with kids
it has to be mentioned that the cliff around Ulu-
watu Temple is partially unsecured. On the way
back it is highly recommended to make a stop in
Jimbaran Bay for a seafood dinner.
The local warungs (restaurants), nestled in be-
tween the area of Four Seasons and Interconti
Hotel, offer real value for money. A 1.5 Kilo Red
Snapper, coming with rice, soup, vegetables and
different sauces only adds up to about 10 USD
and it is enough for two.
In addition to this, Jimbaran Bay is a very romantic
place and offers a great sunset. Be there at the
latest around 6.00 pm.

SIGHTSEEING
Banjar Hot Spring
Gitgit Waterfall
Panglipuran Village
Gunung Kawi Temple
Gunung Kawi Temple (Pura Gunung Kawi) is a very
unique Balinese temple complex, carved into the
mountain and located on Pakerisan River, close to
Tampak Siring village in the regency of Gianyar. Pura
Gunung Kawi bears a resemblance to the South
American Maya Temples as it is surrounded by a lush
green tropical rain forest and situated on a mountain
river.
Gitgit Waterfall is located in a plateau, about 300 me-
ters above sea level. It is the height of about 40 me-
ters, surrounded by tropical trees and a lush green
environment. The way to Gitgit Waterfall is paved with
lots of stalls and on either side of the path you can find
some lush plantations (coffee and cloves). The sellers
are not aggressive at all and you can finally enjoy a 15
minute walk without getting hassled by anyone.
Penglipuran Village in the traditional Balinese country-
side is located in the Bangli regency, about an hour and
30 minute trip from Kuta. See the original Balinese way
of living, visit traditional houses and talk to the locals.
To keep this outstanding cultural attraction going, the
family agreement is that the oldest family member has
to move back to Penglipuran after both parents have
passed away. A must see for Culture Lovers!
Banjar Hot Spring Bali is a very peaceful place where
plenty of locals come for relaxation as well. The toilets
are clean, well maintained and lockers are available.
One of the pools can be described as a kid’s pool and if
you are travelling with the whole family, you can splash
around with your children here. A local Restaurant pro-
vides basic food and cold drinks and some smaller sou-
venir shops are waiting for you to bargain with them.

SIGHTSEEING
Mount Batur’s original height was about 4,000 meters
in prehistoric times. After an enormous eruption noth-
ing was left apart from a large caldera which in 2012
became part of the Global Geopark Network by UN-
ESCO. The actual height of Mount Batur is 1,717 me-
ters. Mount Batur offers a great opportunity to all cy-
cling and trekking fanatics. The Sunrise Trekking Tour is
highly recommended to all those who are physically fit.
Sukawati Art Market is the biggest local market in
Bali to purchase traditional handicrafts and traditional
handmade products, spanning over many blocks on
the main road of Sukawati. It can get very interesting
when you arrive at the “food department” as this area
is extremely local. You should NOT go there if you have
a weak constitution! The Trip from Kuta to Sukawati Art
Market on average takes one hour.
About a 45 minute trip away from Kuta, in the regency
of Tabanan, you are able to find a very interesting but
widely ignored attraction; The Subak Museum. Subak
stands for a very ingenious water irrigation manage-
ment system which was developed in Bali hundreds
of years ago but is still in use. A visit to this museum
teaches you about Bali’s agricultural tradition with the
use of numerous farming related exhibits.

Formerly known as Dreamland, New Kuta Beach looks
like it is slowly but steadily transforming into one of
Bali’s most luxurious development projects. New Kuta
Golf, Klapa Beach Club and Greenpark Waterpark are
just some of the projects which have finished over the
last couple of years in this area. Enjoy some sunset
cocktails at Klapa or play 18 rounds at New Kuta Golf,
Bali’s popular cliff edged Golf Course.

SIGHTSEEING
The 5 Prayer Houses
Bird Markets Denpasar
Seminyak Beach
Monkey Forest
The Monkey forest is located in Bali’s cultural capital
‘Ubud’ and roughly an hour’s trip from the major cities in
the south. The Monkey forest became one of Bali’s most
popular sightseeing destinations and plenty of guides put
it on their selection of tours. This is because you can see
plenty of wild monkeys and it’s the perfect place to go with
kids. Be aware of thieving monkeys and make sure you
don’t wear any sunglasses, caps or necklaces and take
care of your wallet.
The Bird Markets are very local markets. The biodiver-
sity of the shown birds in such a small area is simply
amazing and reminds more to a Zoo then a market.
Hundreds of birds are waiting for a new owner. Howev-
er not only Birds can be found at Bali’s major Bird Mar-
kets in Denpasar. Puppies, cats, bats, monkeys and
other exotic creatures can be bought too. Warning:
Most of the cages are inappropriate for the species.
Seminyak Beach is very well known. It perfectly com-
bines relaxation, dining and nightlife. As with plenty of
other places located on Bali’s west coast, it is a great
spot to see Bali’s wonderful sunsets. Plenty of restau-
rants and beach bars in every price category stretch
along the area known as ‘double six’. The most popular
beach club there is called Cocoon, it’s very well known
for its sophisticated parties such as the Splash Party.
It is a myth that religions can’t live in peace and harmo-
ny next to each other. See a Protestant and a Catholic
Church next to a Buddhist or Hindu temple as well as a
Muslim mosque nearby. Some of these prayer houses
are open for public for a little donation and if you are in
Nusa Dua or Jimbaran you shouldn’t miss out on the
opportunity to see, maybe the only place in the world
where religions are ‘that close’ to each other.

Karangasem Regency became the spot for the
biggest Temple in Bali, Besakih Temple. The tem-
ple is visited by local residents as well as tourists.

ter. Taman Ujung Karangasem is one of the main
attractions in 10 Hectares of Karangasem made
by three architects from Bali, the Netherlands and
China. (Bali Map)
Bangli Regency attractions can be found at Bukit
Jati, which is an ideal place for Hiking and Trek-
king, visiting Historic Villages and the Penglipuran
Temple. In the mountainous areas around Kin-
tamani, there are Mount Batur and Lake Batur
which is the largest lake in Bali. It has natural hot
springs in Toyabungkah. Bangli District is the only
district in Bali that does not have a beach. (Bali
Map)
Denpasar is the economic center of Bali. There
is a Bajra Sandhi museum of heroes and Ba-
linese statues which have become a symbol of
Denpasar. The unique Kreneng night market,
Denpasar Cultural Park (Art Center) and the Bali
museum are all located in the heart of Denpasar.

and create a peaceful ambience.

nightlife and the 5 km white sandy beachfront.

parts in Indonesia develop
out of Bali’s leading tour-
ism role. Although, what is
a booming economy worth
without development of the
infrastructure? Not a lot!
Bali has understood that de-
velopment of its infrastruc-
ture is important for further
investments, economical
growth and to increase
tourism on the Island of the
gods. With the new Under-
pass in Kuta and The Bridge
from Sanur to Nusa Dua,
which is also connected to
the airport, the Balinese Government was able to
reduce traffic massively which now pays off for
everybody coming to The Island Of The Gods.
Bali’s leading role in Indonesian tourism, based
also on its strategically perfect geographic posi-
tion, has not only a positive impact on Bali itself.
A very important side effect of Bali’s quick devel-
opment is the access to other regions in Indone-
sia as more and more new flight routes are being
launched, outgoing from Ngurah Rai international
Airport Bali.
This means that Ngurah Rai International Airport
brings an additional positive impact on the devel-
opment of the economy in other parts of Indone-
sia and finally it helps to increase the economy in
all areas across the country.
To strengthen this progress and obviously to of-
fer vacationers from all over the world a conveni-
ent arrival, PT Angkasa Pura I was doing its bit
and invested a huge amount of money to develop
Ngurah Rai International Airport’s infrastructure.
Bali, also very well known as “Paradise Island” or
“The Island of the Gods” is Indonesia’s flagship
tourist destination.
Balinese people are very spiritual and have strong
religious beliefs. This is probably the main point
why everybody from all over the world feels at-
tracted to Bali and plenty of visitors come back
again and again. Plenty of international important
political events take place in Bali with the target
to make the world a better place and media from
all over the world write about this peaceful Island.
Balinese is one out of about 300 ethnical groups
populating Indonesia which consists of about
17,000 islands. All the groups have the same
rights and everybody lives together in peace and
harmony which guarantees to keep the amazing
diversification in culture. Also, every ethnical group
has its own language which makes Indonesia the
most multilingual country in the world. To ensure
working communication across the country, a
high Indonesian language was developed called
“Bahasa Indonesia”.
The Indonesian Government has taken huge
steps over the last couple of years and has driven
democracy forward. This step was finally one of
the major pillars for the Indonesian economical
growth which was found repeatedly over the last
couple of years in the world’s TOP 5.
Bali with its strong economy, based on tourism,
has a role model function for the rest of Indonesia.
Big movements and changes in Indonesia have
their starting position in Bali and plenty of other
I GUSTI NGURAH RAI
INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
98

The International Airport of Ngurah Rai, located in
the Badung regency, can be described as Angka-
sa Pura’s brand-new express gateway to Indone-
sia and vice versa, the worlds access to Bali and
Indonesia. Especially for the regency of Badung,
which has the biggest GDP out of Bali’s 8 regen-
cies where around 85% comes from tourism, will
profit massively from Angkasa Pura’s I airport pro-
ject as the capacity has increased dramatically.
With enormously increasing numbers in new ar-
rivals, it was simply necessary to restructure the
complete airport and the surrounding area. Also
it was important for Angkasa Pura to go with the
times and use the newest technology available for
the passenger’s convenience.
B+S+C is the formula which I Gusti Ngurah Rai
International Airport was developed on. B stands
for Beauty. The distinctive design, which is a com-
bination of Balinese architecture and a minimal-
ist modern design, will simply impress you and
makes Bali’s airport completely different to all the
others in the world. S stands for safety. By using
high end materials in construction and by hiring
additional security staff, you can feel safe during
your complete stay in and around the airport. Fi-
nally we have the C, standing for convenience.
An easy to understand airport structure, modern
technology such as the newest elevators, escala-
tors, travelators or baggage claims and obviously
the increased amount of Visa terminals and pass-
port controls making your arrival and departure
simply comfortable.
As infrastructure is one of the most important
things in a fast growing economy, with new flight
routes and the enormously increased capacity,
Angkasa Pura I has not only built an airport for
tourists convenience, but it will also increase the
economy in Badung, Bali and the whole Indone-
sia.
Welcome to I Gusti Ngurah Rai International Air-
port – Your personal Brand-New Express Gate-
way To Paradise! - We are ready to welcome YOU
and the rest of the world!
FAR FROM AN ORDINARY AIRPORT

To anticipate the surge of passengers, aircraft
movements and cargo at Ngurah Rai International
Airport, since 1975 till 1978 airport development
projects have been done by building on aviation
support facilities, such as building a new interna-
tional terminal. The old terminal building was con-
verted into a domestic terminal, while the domes-
tic terminal building was used as a cargo building,
catering business, and a multi-purpose building.
In 1990, the Project Development of Ngurah Rai
International Airport was re-done along with the
increasing growth of the planes that used it. The
developments of these facilities were divided into
three stages and were called the Project Facility
Airport and Aviation Safety (FBUKP).
FBUKP Project Phase I (1990-1992) includes an
extension that comes with the aviobridge termi-
nal, runway extension, relocation of taxiway, apron
expansion, renovation and expansion of the termi-
nal building, expansion of the parking lot, cargo
building development, building operations, the
development of air navigation facilities and supply
of aircraft fuel.
FBUKP Project Phase II (1998-2000) included air-
port development undertaken by the Directorate
General of Civil Aviation, among others, by utilizing
an area of 12 hectares of mangroves for use as
aviation safety facilities.
While FBUKP Project Phase III (2011-2013) in-
cluded the development of the terminal building,
parking deck, and apron. The current domestic
terminal area will be expanded to reach a total
of 12,000 meters in width that will then be used
as the international terminal. The existing interna-
tional terminal will be converted into the domestic
terminal. Under these conditions, Ngurah Rai Air-
port will be able to accommodate up to 25 million
passengers.
TO ANTICIPATE
“LACK OF CAPACITY”
100

Ngurah Rai International Airport is not just a trans-
port node or one of the economic driving forces
alone, beyond business, this airport will become a
new landmark for the Island.
In the context of sociology, airport infrastructure
is believed to have a broader meaning, which
became part of the culture and customs of Bali.
Once off the plane, the passengers will be able
to instantly enjoy and explore some of the cultural
richness of Bali at the airport. So that the aspects
of the culture, customs and religion don’t become
one-dimensional they have all been highly con-
sidered in the planning of the development of this
airport. Together with the local government and
related agencies, Angkasa Pura Airports formed a
design committee before starting the construction
of the airport.
The committee was also strengthened by acad-
emicians from the University of Udayana, the
practitioners element of Architectural Association
Region Bali, team builder and traditional Balinese
buildings, as well as traditional leaders in the vil-
lages around the Ngurah Rai International Airport.
With the committee, local wisdom could be ac-
commodated and enrich the airport development
plan. The Architecture of the airports and support-
ing facilities not only parallel with the existing dy-
namics of technological progress, but also to pro-
mote the artistic and aesthetic nuance charged
customs and culture of Bali.
The exterior and interior of the airport buildings are
thick with the feel of Bali, which combined with
the dimensions of a cosmopolitan modernity and
futuristic style.
In fact, many traditional rituals accompanied and
participated in this project. The main building,
which is a new passenger terminal, has a roof like
an ocean wave. The Multilevel parking structure is
pyramid-shaped, resembling a tiered rice field. on
the interior side, very strong Balinese ornaments
color this magnificent building.
While the dimensions of modernity and techno-
logical progress, will look at the major equipment
and the complementary airport. For example, gate
handling system, which uses HBS (Hold Baggage
Screening) worth Rp 150 billion.
Passenger baggage will be moved electronically
and mechanically from day check-in to the air-
craft approaching. This technology creates mini-
mal physical contact by the officers, but much
more accurate, fast, effective, and efficient. Also
equipped wich x-ray sensored layers and it will be
the first time this equipment has been applied to
an Indonesian airport.
