This blog article continues the previous blog article which reviewed Sanur and what is interesting about Sanur. Several interesting activities that can be enjoyed in Sanur include enjoying the beautiful view of Sanur Beach. When the weather is clear in the morning, the sunrise is the hallmark of Sanur Beach. Jogging along the jogging track available from Matahari Terbit Beach near Sanur Harbor south to Mertasari Beach is enough to make you sweat and your body feel healthy. Apart from jogging, riding a bicycle is also another alternative to enjoy Sanur and then return north via Jalan Danau Tamblingan.

Sanur was the first tourist area developed in Bali during President Soekarno's administration, marked by the construction of a five-star hotel called Bali Beach. Furthermore, Sanur experienced changes slowly but surely. Residents who were originally fishermen slowly changed their profession and worked in the tourism sector. Many tourist facilities are starting to appear, such as bungalows, hotels, villas, restaurants, and souvenir shops. For people who own land, they create guest houses to enjoy the delicious tourism business. Development of the Sanur area continues to this day. Currently, an international standard hospital is being built which is located not far from the Bali Beach Hotel which is now called Grand Inna Bali Beach. The location where this international hospital was built was previously a golf course.

The latest news currently from the Sanur area is the opening of a shopping center called Icon Bali which is located on Jalan Danau Tamblingan, soft opening on 7 June 2024. This mall will compete with existing malls in southern Bali such as Living World, Beach Walk on Kuta Beach, Discovery Shopping Mall, Bali Galeria, Trans Mart, and Bali Collection in the Nusa Dua area. Icon Bali, a new mall that will start operating in June, will also provide alternative choices for shopping and recreation in the Sanur area.

There are several public concerns about the construction of this large mall on Jalan Danau Tamblingan, Sanur. One of them is that the density and busyness of traffic flow to the Sanur area will definitely increase and allow traffic jams to occur. Jalan Danau Tamblingan, where the Icon Bali mall is located, doesn't feel very wide. Along Jalan Danau Tamblingan there are various tourism facilities such as hotels, villas, restaurants, cafes, art shops, money changers, motorbike rentals, and other businesses.

To anticipate traffic jams, the government is conducting trials to change traffic flow. Along Jalan Danau Tamblingan there will be 1 lane for the car, from north to south, starting from the traffic light near Mc Donald to the Semawang Sanur intersection starting June 5 2024 at 16:00. Hopefully this traffic engineering can provide positive things for the Sanur area, especially overcoming traffic jams. The traffic diversion flow can be seen in the image that has been distributed by related parties in several mass media.

For tourists who are on holiday in the Sanur area or will be staying overnight in the Sanur area, of course, this information is very valuable, especially for those staying at one of the hotels along Jalan Danau Tamblingan. This will definitely have an impact on travel time to the hotel and taxi costs.
