BALI 🇮🇩 This BLACK LAVA FLOW Blew Me Away (MUST VISIT)

[@learnwithliam]

I’m not a local but you said you would pin the comment if it solves your mystery why the trees grow in the hole. I did research just wanting to be pinned. That is because it has bigger hole than other small pots, soil flows into the bigger hole when it rains and there lots of soils there so trees can grow much bigger than other small pots area on that volcano. Hope this moment to be pinned 😁 and anyway, I’m Liam. I make KZbin videos too about how to grow on KZbin. Thanks Paddy, m an absolute fan of your channel ❤️

[@annalenapirothmaclean5557]

Hi Liam, thank you for posting this, it makes sense to me!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

That makes A LOT of sense to me....

[@jairusmedley8246]

I stayed in a guest house just down from the lava fields. The lava fields are called Bukit Hitam (black hills). It was very nice to walk around by myself when I was there. Luckily I can speak Bahasa Indonesia, so I got to see the local temples in the area by befriending some locals. Most locals speak little to no English. I was taken to a small temple that had a tiny waterfall. You asked about the tree. You only wrap the banyan tree, which is sacred in Bali. Also, you will notice that statues of gods are wrapped at the waist with a sarong too.

[@marcopolo2893]

Hi, can you share the name of the guest house you stayed. My daughter and I would love to explore the lava fields. Thanks

[@TheBruceShirts]

thank you

[@cindylingwood7044]

Hey Paddy what's the name of the place you stayed here. Am going to Bali soon and would love to stay there. The views are awesome

[@sayme3236]

Absolutely stunning! thank you for the video, i really needed this. will be in bali in early July and possibly in Late October as well. Cheers!

[@PaulTAdventures]

Absolutely beautiful as always Paddy . You truly are fantastic at what you do and as always we all enjoy watching your adventures.

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@EddieAppell]

I loved the drone footage of the lava flow! You really captured it brilliantly. So beautiful! Thanks for another great video Paddy!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

it is my favorite drone shot so far I think

[@bluestarfishsea]

Wow those rocky lava shots with the pops of forest 😍

[@MAJOR_AB]

Batur village was there before the eruption. There used to be a temple at that place hence why its sacred

[@IGustiNgurahPutraArimbawa69]

I'm Balinese, i live at Gianyar, outskirt of busy bali area, since you asked why so many mini sacred place at nature are there, i will try to explain : Balinese Hinduism is a mix of local cultural beliefs and Hinduism. we believe in Tri Hita Karana (3 factors for a better life): good relationship with God (worship), good relationship with other human beings, and good relationship with nature. on the third point of good relations with nature realworld (you can see it from your experience here : nice paddi fields, green blush etc) we called "sekala", we also recognize the existence of an abstract world "niskala". Balinese people tend to make a relationship with the abstract world "niskala" in good ways. we make some offerings too and try to make good relationship (niskala / abstract world). like we pray and say (in simple words): "hello there's in the abstract world, we are innocent human, we can't see you, we can't hear you. but we human and you there are both God's creation. please don't disturb us, as we don't disturb you there. peace". Bali had many cultural periods, one of them was when Bali (Batur area) was ruled by King Jaya Pangus, he had a meditate place around Mount Batur, so the mysterious place you've found maybe that historically used by the king to meditate long time ago, or maybe some sacred place "not a temple" (lots of them in Bali) the place where the abstract world "niskala" is more tangiable/feelable . ( i need to confirm this to my fellow balinese live there) so, balinese make some offerings there to niskala. so that's why you will not find God (Deva/Dewi) statue there, because there's not a temple, What should we do when we accidentally come to a place like that? -just do as usual, nothing to worry about. just don't do bad manners (swearing, pissing etc).

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Wow that’s awesome to learn, thanks 🙏

[@PaddyDoyle.]

I hope you are enjoying these BALI videos as much as I had fun exploring these incredible places!

[@HyperBali]

Thank you. Your video showed what Bali trully is, aside from parties, beachclubs, etc. You really did justice to Bali❤

[@macd1010]

One possible explanation to your lava question is that very well the area may have been an island raised up over the surrounding lava. On subsequent eruptions, a lava tube formed that transports the magma (lava) downslope. Over time, the magma ceases, the lava tube empties, and eventually subsides or collapses thus created that indentation. Just a thought. I live on the side of Kilauea in Hawaii and lava tubes are common hear. Every once in a while residents disappear due to an unknown lava tube.

[@davidlist7507]

You talk beautifully of the beautiful you are at how nice, a nice gentleman you are, Peace, and Love

[@BodyBliss_by_Nadine]

This lava flow is stunning 🤩

[@teresaheckendorn3871]

[@shawntay5748]

Your video is so well done! Sharp, beautiful views. Can't get enough of it!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Awesome, thank you!

[@ThailandThomas]

I normally don't get excited over lava flows, you can make anything interesting Paddy. Great video mate.

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thanks 👍

[@juliegreentree1773]

thanks Paddy enjoying watching as we are going to Ball next month and it looks amazing

[@manithdoung4141]

Paddy tu est superbe tu réponds au attend des des autres et c'est vraiment courageux de ta part merci Paddy

[@criscris3898]

Nice presentation .. off the beaten path. 😊

[@sorekara313]

amazing shots as always, Paddy. love Bali! 🤍

[@lisavance2012]

I love your channel and how beautiful your videos are. Lava fields are one of my favorite adventures and you exploring in this episode is totally an experience that I would seek out. My first and only time in SE Asia (so far) was Bali and Komodo Island. We did the sunrise hike up Mt. Batur and not only saw an amazing sunrise but Mt. Agung was "letting off a little steam and ash" in the distance. Thank you for what you do. You are my go to channel for inspiration. I love your appreciation and enjoyment for nature, the views, and the people!

[@VitusPolikarpusSM]

It's fun to be able to enjoy the former lava flows on the island of Bali. Thank you for your valuable documentation

[@idontwantahandle._.]

I just now realized that Bali is fricking huge! It's also the same distance from the equator as Phuket. I thought it was on the equator.

[@wendy-0101]

❤️❤️❤️Paddy. Amazing journey you are on. Look forward to your next Vlogs. 💞

[@Geoffreyboucher]

Fantastic video Paddy,,,,peace and happiness on your travels as always,,,

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Same to you!

[@camandjames18]

Loving this series! We are on the Gili Islands at the minute and we can’t wait to see the north of Bali when we head back there!

[@nancywibowo8632]

Stunning video Paddy, the lava and that 'sesajen" or offerings to the goddes feel very sacred. I can feel how big the explosion that time. Thank you for this video, We must respect to the power of mother nature.

[@alittlesunshinewithjayandbee]

Good stuff, Paddy! The landscape almost made it look like you were gonna throw something into Mount Batur 💍🌋

[@princessdianaborromeo]

Very nice view iLike it

[@hfc6535]

Video's are brilliant Paddy . Bali really is a beautiful place.

[@PaddyDoyle.]

It really is!

[@kidmilan6585]

Bali è un posto magnifico veramente top editing 😉

[@lingdatang669]

13:37 nice music

[@WanderlustWellman]

I stayed at the same hotel over by the Danu Beratan Lake last year - it was a beautiful place but definitely a bit chilly. It's a great time to relive my adventures through your videos!

[@marcopolo2893]

do you mind please to share the name of that hotel? thanks

[@EBZlivinglarge]

Love your vlogs you chubby bear.

[@OZatsepin]

it's so cool to see how the channel growing, and cool that you have video titles translated to other languages. I found your videos from Thailand only because title was translated to Ukrainian. btw, I am living in Ubud, if you want we can meet for some adventure or just cap of coffee

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thanks mate, actually was there last month, I’ve been busy filiming adventures in Europe that will come out in July

[@OZatsepin]

​@@PaddyDoyle. ah I see, forgot that it's huge amount of work to be done before publish the video

[@by.bradley]

Wow! What a beautiful sunrise 🤩. What is name the hotel you stayed in at the lava flow?

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Check description

[@whatnow5598]

That tree is actually growing from a temple that was smothered by the lava!!

[@markschilder2097]

Great video Paddy! What is the name of this awesome Black Lava Hotel?

[@anna_m59]

Bali is unique and that’s exactly that you captured. Wondering which area you most like?

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Sidemen was very cool

[@josephhapp9]

Paddy, great stuff. Bali in the north😘. Was that a Piano at the Resort in the background during your promo?

[@jolinaocampo-qj3pr]

Great content. please make more videos like this to earn more knowledge to our people 🙏🙏

[@stratometer]

Dude! Super fit now! You got Popeye calves

[@MopokesAdventures]

Hi Paddy, sorry if I've missed it somewhere but would you mind linking the accommodation you stayed at with the view of the lava field's? Stunning spot. Terima kasih!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Ayodya Batur Villa

[@MopokesAdventures]

@@PaddyDoyle. cheers mate.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Nice morning View paddy (good price 30-40 usd)

[@SilverfoxJB]

Paddy, loving this series, but while watching it I also had the urge to watch my favorite Budgeteers series “The Bike Ride” I wonder if it would be possible to contact Mark. I would love to know what has happened to him since that series. I feel like we need closure.

[@melissafrye76]

Walking around the volcanic debris is so cool... that little mystery pocket with the tree - so interesting! I hope someone knows the story behind it, or at least the mythology that might have been created because of it. 😁 I could make up a story about a determined little tree that pushed through the hardened lava and grew so tall and strong, regardless of the hinderances and obstacles it had on the ground. 😆 Whatever it may be, it is just another amazing part of this beautiful world we live in!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

it really is another world out there

[@onmywayto8083]

I live in Hawaii big island. After the last eruption in Leilani the foliage grew back fairly quickly, like ferns and such. No trees for a while though

[@johnmangomedia]

Hi Paddy living in Thailand and enjoy your channel,two quick questions for you,seen a couple of times you root for Newcastle (I’m from Wallsend).and do you list somewhere the gear you use for your videos?

[@NickyDunn]

Hiya Paddy. The place you found to stay is insane. The views are epic early morning. Spectacular drone footage. An amazing place. Love how the clouds look. Great information. Thank you for sharing your adventures. Epic. Far away from people being in your own space. The tree is mad. Great tunes. Epic series. On to the next one.

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thanks Nicky!

[@mccarthyworld]

Could I ask for the name of the room? I HAVE to go there. And thanks Paddy for the great work

[@marcopolo2893]

Hi Paddy, what is the name of the hotel you stayed near Mt Batur lava flow? I really want to explore that area. Many thanks

[@prashantslakkannavar5638]

Do we need to register drones (I owns dji mini 3 pro too) to fly in Bali?

[@ryanhan1918]

Anyone knows the name of the accomodation that is facing mt batur? Would love to stay there too!

[@TravelInOneMinute]

I will always give Bali a change ... if I have enough money to go there

[@shork14]

looks to me like that small pocket of trees grew after the last eruption instead of before

[@dirkbalding6799]

Glad someone mentioned it ^^

[@ninettemurk7492]

Including that huge tree?

[@dylanlewis3668]

What do you think of Lombok?

[@jamesmail113]

I must say, I remember back in the day when you were all like ' I'm not the kind of guy who researches places then tell you all about them' now it sounds a bit more Wikipedia style commentary.

[@KarmaCal57]

Paddy. Why are you wearing WHITE sneakers & sox in a black lava field? 😂😂😂

[@ravindersingh8903]

Back to Vietnam again 😅

[@bobsaget8123]

gheyer and gheyer!

[@ronbeaubien]

Unfortunately, on June 13th, 2023, Bali’s governor announced an immediate ban on tourist activities on its mountains. Climbing is no longer allowed for visiting travelers due to repeated bad behavior. Now tourists will only be able to view them from afar. Bali is also taking steps to ban all tourists from driving scooters, motorcycles, or cars on the island. Instead, they would have to hire drivers just to sit in traffic on the already overcrowded roads.

[@johnshores4745]

maybe a ban on tourists driving scooters would mean less traffic on the streets ?

[@ronbeaubien]

@@johnshores4745 Maybe, but probably only if fewer tourists come to Bali. Cars and SUVs take up much more space on Bali's narrow roads than all the scooters and motorcycles currently do. At least with scooters and motorcycles, you can go down side paths which is impossible in larger vehicles.

[@mzan2691]

Sounds like I'm going to give Bali a chance, if the ban will actually come into effect. Otherwise Bali will remain on my not-to-do-list.

[@blowfold1]

Abus Gassed out and showed absolutely no heart and desire. Just didn’t fancy it

[@Lordkingkyron]

Your not supposed to touch other people's offerings it's disrespectful. Great content tho love this channel
