Indonesia is famous for its natural attractions, from beaches to tropical forests to mountains, its incredible wildlife, friendly locals and rich culture. With nearly 17,000 different islands to choose from, it's also the perfect destination for island hoppers.
Bali, Indonesia was named the "most picturesque" place in the world, where holidaymakers can enjoy "once-in-a-lifetime" experiences, but there is new guidance Britons should be aware of before travelling there.
British holidaymakers heading to Indonesia have recently been warned they must fill out a new document when visiting the popular Asian holiday hotspot.
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has updated its information on entry requirements for the destination.

The FCDO told Britons: "To enter Indonesia, all international travellers must fill out an electronic self-declaration form called SATUSEHAT Health Pass.
"It is recommended that you complete this form prior to departure to avoid delays when arriving in Indonesia."
Holidaymakers visiting Indonesia should consult the FCDO's information on warnings and insurance, entry requirements, safety and security, regional risks, health and getting help.
Britons visiting Bali specifically should be aware that their holidays could be more expensive.
Starting earlier this year, the holiday paradise charges a tourist tax.
Wonderful Indonesia, the official account of Indonesia's Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, shared an update.
A social media post read: "Bali welcomes you with a new initiative. Starting Feb 14, 2024, join in preserving Bali's rich heritage with the International Tourism Levy.
"Easy to pay via the Love Bali App, it's a small step towards big changes in protecting culture and nature.
"Your contribution enhances Bali's beauty and your travel experience! Embrace responsible tourism and be part of #BaliLegacyJourney."
