There are many interested places in Jakarta one of my favorite is  watch 3D movie in  PACIFIC PLACE JAKARTA , inside the building you can  found RealD- 3D cinema, café, karaoke, a smoking lounge, blitzGameSphere, blitzShoppe, a fine dining restaurant, and two Velvet auditoriums with special Velvet lounges.
Very interested place, but you need 3d glasses to watch the film. You can buy 3d glasses or get it from the cinema.
With 3d glasses will make the film or television show you are watching look like a 3d scene that’s happening right in front of you. With objects flying off the screen and shifting in your direction, and creepy characters reaching out to catch you, wearing 3d glasses causes you feel like you are a part of the action.

Named the United Nations of beaches, Legian Beach in Bali, Indonesia, is indeed filled with a multitude of “westerners” as well as the native Bali men and women. The difference? The Europeans and Americans are almost completely nude, whereas the men and women of the island are fully clothed from the workday. But here we see a glimpse of what Legian Beach, Bali, looks like on a typical day. It’s very different at night. Here you’ll see surfers lining up for the perfect wave, and people just hanging out. We enjoyed the thought of grabbing a beach chair and lying here listening to the surf. Isn’t that what beach life is all about? This beach has some serious wave action during the day.

There are abundant activities here that are very affordable! However this beach is not recommended for swimming due to some tough undercurrents that will sweep you under – so watch out. The beach is very wide and if the tide is right you can walk a long ways until the water actually comes to your knees. This Indonesian beach is full of people at night; the sunsets are absolutely breathtaking!

To fully enjoy Legian Beach, you must visit all the shops, bars, vendors, and have an amazing amount of fun because this beach is definitely a party beach. Here, you’ll forget you’re in Indonesia, and you will get away from any worry while you play football in the sand or canoe along the coast all the while watching scantily clad Brazilian women sunbathe on the beach. Or you could lie out yourself on the beautiful brown sand underneath the cornucopia of palms that line the shore. Read the rest of this entry »

Sanur Beach in Bali, Indonesia, is one long beach – with white/off white sand. As you see in the video, the water is calm and protected. Once home to a great reef, it is mainly gone due to erosion and Indonesia “progress”; silt and pesticide runoff from construction. So for Sanur, lot’s of nice sand, but below the surface there are many problems. We were first interested in the beaches of Bali when a user e-mailed asking why we didn’t include this beach. Unfortunately, this is one of the better beaches here. For some reason, probably corruption, these beaches do not get the treatment they deserve. There is little enforcement of the few laws Indonesia has for preservation. Feel free to comment.
