Denpasar City, The Capital Of Bali Province Of Indonesia


Denpasar is the capital city of Bali Province, Indonesia. This city is the center of Bali Island's economy. Here we can found mixed culture between Balinese traditional and western culture. A long time ago this city was called "Badung City", where the "Puputan War" (the war between Balinese combatant with the Dutch collonists) happened in 1906. The name of "Denpasar" means "Pasar Baru" or "The New Market", which explain the stature of the city as the center of governance, economic trade, education, industry, and tourism of Bali Island.
