Previously an ancient Indonesian royal garden, Tirta Gangga has been much hyped online due to its beautiful ponds and hordes of koi fish.

Edelweiss is known as an immortal flower that never withers, and as a symbol of true love. In the past, mountain climbers used to carry edelweiss, but now they can do it without climbing. Visitors can see the beauty and get this edelweiss flower in the Karangasem Edelweiss Park, Bali. Maybe so far the North Bali area has been less attractive to tourists. However, now tourists can consider vacationing in northern Bali. Where there is an Edelweiss Garden with a soothing mountain atmosphere. Comfort place with good weather, the place not well maintain and the real place much different with the photo that people share. #urbanexplorer #springblossoms #springblossombali #awesomepic #unforgettableexperiences #springblossoms#urbanexplorer
