Pemuteran in Bali has been recognized as one of Lonely Planet's best destinations in Asia.The list is based on reviews by the travel guidebook publisher's Asia-focused writers after they explored the continent's jungles, beaches and cities, CNN Travel reported. "The result is a varied hit list of classic destinations offering a fresh twist for travelers, regions packed full of action and edge-of-the-map places you may never heard of," said Lonely Planet spokesperson Chris Zeiher. Sitting at number seven in the ranking, Pemuteran is a village in north Bali’s Buleleng regency. The area, surrounded by a lush hilly landscape and bordering the Bali Sea to the north, offers a laid-back atmosphere and an abundance of marine life.
