Widuri talks about some special islands in her home country of Indonesia.
Danu: So, Widuri, Indonesia is an island nation.
Widuri: Right.
Danu: And you have so many islands.
Widuri: True.
Danu: Could you talk about some famous places in Indonesia?
Widuri: Wow, let me see. My list is very long about this, but I will mention the three most favorite places. Okay, the first one is Bali. I think this one is very famous everywhere. Sometimes people know Bali, but they don't know that Bali is in Indonesia. So Bali is a very, very beautiful island in Indonesia, both local and international tourists, they go to Bali, of course. In Bali, you can find many beautiful beaches, and the weather is very good there. The preferable time to go there is August, I guess, because it's summertime and it's also very hot in Indonesia.
Danu: So Bali sounds like a very nice place.
Widuri: Yes it is.
Danu: Have you been to Bali, Widuri?
Widuri: So many times, yeah. Because, well, my dad used to work there, so every vacation I went there to visit my dad, and of course, to visit the beautiful beaches in Bali.
Danu: Oh, that sounds really fun.
Widuri: Yes, it is.
Danu: So, you said Bali is an island, right? So is there any specific interesting place in Bali?
Widuri: Okay, so most of the people in Bali, they are Hindus, so there are a lot of Hindu temples in Bali. But me, mention one, the name is Pura Besakih, this one is the largest temple in Bali, and not only Hindu people in Bali, but Hindu people in Indonesia, they go there to pray.
Danu: I see, it sounds really interesting.
Widuri: Yes, it is.
Danu: Have you visited that temple, Widuri?
Widuri: Yeah, I think two times, and it's always crowded, not only with local tourists, but also with international tourists.
Danu: So Bali is very famous among international tourists and local tourists as well.
Widuri: Yes, it is.
Danu: I see, that's interesting.
