Bali's Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park

On Bali's southernmost peninsula, south of Denpasar and the Kuta resort, this 60-hectare park was inaugurated in 2018, and its highlight is Indonesia's tallest statue (72 meters), depicting the Hindu god Vishnu mounting the mythical iconic Garuda bird, 126 meters high and weighing 3,000 tons; visitors can ascend the idol and get panoramic views including Jimbaran Bay, Kuta, Tanjung Benoa, and Sanur with Mount Agung and Mount Batur.  The surrounding area is packed with other sculptures, gardens, cultural performances, and film screenings, along with cafés and restaurants.
