Denpasar (Antara Bali) - The Bali Hotels Association planed to develop puri (palace) tour packages as a kingdom heritage in the island of gods (pulau dewata) for cultural preservation.
"By this tour package, tourists can learn about traditional dances, cook, making offering and others, while they can stay at residents' homes," Executive Director of Bali Hotels Association (BHA) Djinaldo Gosana said here on Thursday.
He said the puri tour package is a combination form between rural tourism development and palaces family activities.
So the tourists could enjoy cultural activities that are supported by surrounding residents.
