    I’m definitely one of the oldies that loved revisiting Poppies Lane 1.
    First went there mid 1970’s.
    Drinks at The Pub which was originally on Bemo Corner and then a stroll to Poppies Restaurant for something to eat.
    It was wonderful. 🏝️💝

    Good old Poppies 1 and 2. I doubt many survived as most shops owned by landlords. The staff are the ones who missed out badly, remembering that there is no Social security. I feel so sorry for them. In the early days Poppies was really the place to be, so many stories to tell. I mean there was not a huge lot above Padma street off Legian. Great as usual. X

    Was there for 1 month on my travels as a 19 year old in 2001 and it was a blast, so many young backbackers there all having a great time. I hope business picks up again.

    Everything is so different in Bali. In Poppies 1, some shops no longer exist. And there are so few people around. The rerstaurants empty. I know that differently. I was very often on this beautiful island until 2019. That's sad.

    Thanks for the look at poppies lane 1 and 2 as we haven’t been there since august 2019 and enjoyed your video. Damian I think maybe a hat will keep you cooler while walking in the heat . Appreciate all you do. Your both lovely people .

    Great update. Poppies 1 looks so different to when I went before
    What area or streets do you think has the best mix of different country visitors and locals now? (Beaides canggu) ..seminyak doing well still? Curious to know where most visitors/tourist and locals be going now.
    I'd love to see which streets you think have the best mix and that are busier or popping

    There is a new hotel complex being built on the site of the old Victory. It will house a hotel, boutique shops and cafes. It will transform Poppies 1.

    I stayed in Poppies One at the lovely Kuta Puri Bungalows back in June. I was told the big area of cleared vacant land in Poppies One was going to be a new resort hotel??

    From the homepage:
    "Poppies Restaurant recently celebrated its 50th anniversary. It opened on 12 January 1973 along an empty sandy track leading to Kuta Beach, that would soon become known as Poppies Lane."
    The nostalgia....I would give my left arm for a time machine.

      @@TheMonkeys I rarely walk down that way. The farthest I go is the gang to Bene near Mamma’s. Otherwise up the other way all the time.

    I don't think I could do a lot there, not really for me... If that open land is used wisely, it might attract more people to that area...

    Haven’t stayed in that area for about 12 years. It’s really dead & not looking good.
