Places to see in Ubud

Postby thenotebook on 29 Oct 2009 12:00am

Hi,

I will visit Bali next week and staying in Sanur. I have heard so many nice things about Ubud. Can someone please let me know some interesting parts of Ubud. I have heard about Monkey Forest Road but do not know exactly what it is. Can anyone recommend any nice affordable spas that overlook the forest?

How far is Ubud from Sanur?

Any other places of interest, I may drive up the east coast of Bali.

Thanks!

Ubud is Bali’s cultural heart. There are lot places to visit there such as art galleries, Balinese dancing, museums, etc.
Also there are deep scenic forests with gushing rivers below. You can easily find Yoga teachers.
In the centre of the island, Gunung Agung, is the eight century Mother Temple, Pura Besakih. You can choose to climb the summit if you are fit enough. But it reach the summit for the sunshine you have to climb in mid night.

If you’re staying at Sanda, you can visit Blemantung Waterfall through farmland and coffee and vanilla plantations, or drive out to Medewi on the west coast.
