In 2019, six million travelers came to enjoy this little slice of paradise. Bali is full of tourists spending their money and boosting business. But since international borders were closed, and tourism dried up, the island's economy has crumbled.
However, the Indonesian government believes that will soon change, and the empty streets of Bali - ravaged by the pandemic - will be bustling again.
With over 80 per cent of Bali's population vaccinated and a sharp decline in COVID cases - what is needed now is tourists.
Indonesian officials confirmed 19 countries could now travel to Bali - including China, Japan, New Zealand and several countries from Western Europe and the Arabian Gulf. Australia is not on the list due to strict restrictions of Australia's Covid-19.
Visitors will be asked to follow certain rules. They must be fully vaccinated, undergo PCR tests before, and after they arrive, and also need to be quarantined for five days at the hotel.
