Regions: Ubud

Ubud is the centre of Balinese arts and crafts. Here visitors will find some of the finest stone, silver and woodcarvings in the world and at some of the best prices. Set high in the hills amongst terraced rice paddy fields, a large number of visitors come on day trips from the coastal resorts, but more and more are opting for longer stays due to some of the most luxurious resorts which are now offered in the area.

Perched on the hill slopes most hotels offer glorious views of the Ayung or Tjampuhan Rivers. Ubud is a rare experience for those seeking something other than sun, sand and surf. Be sure to visit the galleries, studios and handicraft shops or take time for a performance of the Legong Dance.
