Bali, Panchoran Retreat
Linda Garland is an architect who spent most of her career creating tropical resorts around the world. She then settled in a river gorge in Bali and alloted most of her time growing all sorts of bamboos on her 25-acre property, becoming an expert on the plant.
Then her luxurious estate became a sort of architectural experiment, which is now open to the public as Panchoran Retreat and has been attracting guests from all over the world. The highlight of this wonderful getaway is a hanging lounge area just above the river.
