Bali Means Beautiful
A feeling of safety and comfort will support
a participant's achievement in a bridge championship. This
is why we have chosen Bali for the 2001 World Bridge Championships.
Bali has belonged to the world for a long time, and has also
been a part of the international tourism network.
The 2001 World Bridge Championships will be
held at the Bali International Convention Center, Nusa Duca,
located on the southern edge of Bali Island. This is Bali's
most exclusive part where the five-star resorts with high-qualified
services and international standards are located. The resorts
were built with modern Balinese architecture, and have white
sanded beaches, clear water and flapping coconut leaves. The
temperature all year long in Bali is 20-32 Celsius degrees
with humidity amounts of average 85%.
The dry season is from May to October with a
transitional monsoon (Should that be Transnational Monsoon!
Editor) in October and December.
Accommodation
There are 3,000 first class hotel rooms in the
immediate vicinity. The Convention Centre adjoins the 369
room Sheraton Nusa Indah Resort and is adjacent to the luxurious
Sheraton Laguna Nusa Dua, a Sheraton Luxury Collection Resort
with 276 rooms.
Dining & Entertainment
The best of East and West meet in the nearby
restaurants, presenting you with many mouthwatering menus.
Variety flows into your entertainment, with an existing array
of traditional or modern flavours. Eight restaurants and five
bars are located in the two adjacent Sheraton resorts.
Leisure
4 Tennis Courts, Live Entertainment, Swimming
Pool, Health Club, Sauna, Child's Pool and Outdoor Playground.
Transportation
Numerous airlines service Bali's Ngurah Rai
international Airport, either directly or via Jakarta.
Visa
A visa is not required for countries having
a reciprocal immigration treaty with Indonesia. Please consult
the nearest Indonesian Embassy.
