Last month, tourism minister Sandiaga Uno warned that the situation in south Bali was verging on overtourism.

From Euronews, Bali has long been a tourist honeypot, but the growing influx of visitors is putting pressure on local infrastructure and endangering the environment.

Concerned overtourism will become unmanageable, Indonesian authorities have brought in a temporary suspension on new hotel builds in some areas of the island.

The measure hopes to check overdevelopment and reduce strain on local services.
