Mallika Dureja
Singaraja is a port town in the northern part of Bali. It is the capital of the Buleleng Regency. In Indonesian, the name means “Lion King” in English. Between 1849 and 1953, Singaraja was also the capital of Bali for the Dutch.
More than 120,000 people live in this city, which is the second largest on Bali. The streets of this place are lined with greenery, and there are still Dutch colonial buildings standing. This makes for a very charming scene. The area along the water to the north of Jl Erlangga is also worth seeing. People spend hours at this peaceful waterfront because it makes them feel calm.
Lovina is another of Singaraja’s top attractions. It is not in the city itself, but it is only a few miles away.
During the time that the Dutch ruled Bali, Singaraja was very important because it helped the Dutch stay in charge of all of Bali’s government. In fact, Singaraja is one of the few places in the world where you can still see tiny signs of Dutch, Chinese, and Islamic influence. Singaraja has changed over the years and is now known as one of the most important places for education and culture.
On the whole island of Bali, there are only two airports. The other one could be built in the Kubutambahan area of Bali, which is east of Singaraja. This would make it very easy for tourists to get to this area.
