Bali is one of the top tourist hotspots worldwide. But the behaviour of holidaymakers now has consequences.
The government is relying on new rules of etiquette so that the harmony of the island does not falter. Holidaymakers are now prohibited from climbing sacred trees or religiously revered buildings. On the beach, however, ordinary swimwear may still be worn. Governor I Wayan Koster wants to fundamentally change tourism on the island: "This initiative will promote the transformation of Bali from mass tourism to quality tourism"
