Bali, an island province of Indonesia, has been shaped by centuries of Hindu influence, volcanic activity, and a deep connection between daily life and ritual.

The nearby Templo de San Cayetano, built by mine owners in the mid-1700s, is a stunning example of baroque design, lined with gilded altars and intricate woodwork.
