How to Explore Asia? Part 3.

You have certainly heard of the Indian festival of colors Holi . It is the quintessence of colorful Asia! It is celebrated in February or March to welcome spring and symbolizes the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. After an evening of fun by the bonfire, the next day there is a joint game of throwing colored powders and dousing each other with paints. Traditionally, dyes were created from plants that bloom in spring, but now they are produced in factories. Festivals of colors associated with Holi are also held in many cities around the world. Go to such an event in your area and you will feel this specific climate of Asia with your sense of sight and at the same time you will definitely have a great time J

If you feel that your eyesight needs a moment of rest, I can recommend wonderful places where you will definitely regenerate your eyes and mind. In addition to the fabulous jungle in Borneo, the eye-pleasing coral reefs in Indonesia and the spacious tea fields in Taiwan, I want to encourage you to visit two places in particular.

If you have the opportunity, go to the pink beach on Komodo . The sand has gained its charming color thanks to the content of pieces of coral. The combination of turquoise water and delicate pink sand, the greenery growing on the island and the blue sky is a paradise for the sense of sight. Unfortunately, the beach is visited by many tourists who do not always know how to take care of its cleanliness and appreciate its uniqueness. I had the opportunity to visit it a few years ago, when it was not yet so popular. If any of you visit the Indonesian pink beach soon - please send me photos J

Not far away – in Bali, I was very impressed by the rice terraces . Do you know what makes them unique? Rice is the basic source of daily food, but it is also considered sacred – that is why its cultivation is associated with religious holidays and is a kind of ceremony. Due to the lack of sufficient plains, rice is grown in Bali on specially designated “terraces” – on the slopes of hills. It looks really amazing and you can also go for a walk along the paths between the individual plots. If you are lucky, you will then see farmers picking weeds from the fields or tending to their crops. For us, rice terraces are a tourist attraction and for the locals – a source of food and a place of daily work, which we can observe with respect.

How colorful Asia is can be seen in our cosmetics line called Power of Orient . We have collected natural cosmetics based on Ayurvedic ingredients and formulas that not only work effectively and smell beautiful, but also please the eyes with wonderfully colorful packaging inspired by the colors of Asia.
