THE HISTORY OF TOURISM IN BALI:
The
first documented “tourist” to visit Bali was a Dutch Member of
Parliament, Herr H. Van Kol. He is considered a tourist because he was
not on official business. He was in Bali to enjoy himself. He had just
been to Sumatra and Java and arrived in Bali on July 4, 1902. He visited
Klungkung and Karangasem. When he returned to Holland he wrote a book
titled Uit Onze Kolonien, (Out of our Colonies) which was published in
Leiden in 1902. Within its 826 pages, 123 are devoted to Bali.
From
a strictly commercial point of view, the Dutch were the first to
recognize the potential revenues and business potential that Bali
offered with tourism. The Dutch opened a tourist bureau in Batavia
(present day Jakarta) in 1908. Its purpose was to promote tourism in the
Dutch East Indies and its scope was extended to Bali in 1914.
With
the introduction of a regular weekly KPM steamship from Java to Bali in
1924, tourism here in Bali really began to take off. The typical
schedule, or itinerary, was that the passengers disembarked on a Friday
morning in Singaraja, made a round trip of the island by car, and left
to return to Java on Sunday.By 1925, Bali was already the focus of
several travel agencies and travel businesses both in Holland and in
England.
“Bali, the island immediately east of Java, is
so easily accessible that it must inevitably be flooded with tourist.
the day is not far distant when more pasanggrahans (rest-houses) will be
erected to cope with the steadily growing volume of visitors.
”The
first international hotel on Bali was built by the colonial Dutch in
Denpasar in 1926 and was called The Bali Hotel. That hotel was built on
the site of the 1906 Denpasar Puputan by the Balinese against the Dutch
(soon followed by the better known 1908 Puputan in Klungkung). The next
notable hotel to follow The Bali Hotel was the Natour which was built in
1927, also in Denpasar. There were a number of other hotels built in
Denpasar as well as in Singaraja.
A consistent
philosophy that connects the early tourism industry on Bali to these
earliest books written about Bali is the presentation of Bali as a
Garden of Eden. The emphasis in all these earliest works is on the
culture, the arts and the way of life of the Balinese, or “children of
nature” as some early authors referred to them. Scanning the hundreds of
photos to be found within these various works. books and guide books,
one will very seldom encounter a beach front scene unless it is
illustrating Balinese fishermen.
The onset of WWII
brought tourism as originally envisioned by the Dutch and English to an
end. Tourism in Bali would not see a resurgence until the end of the
Indonesian War of Independence, and that recent history of tourism on
Bali is all too well known
