Bali Ubud Shopping
Botanical Gardens: Ubud, Bali
Ubud is stunningly beautiful place and now, it has a new addition with the opening of the Botanical Garden Ubud recently. Situated some 1.2 kilometres from the centre of town, it offers visitors a relaxed and unique setting.

Highlights of Ubud Bali
Ubud is known as the cultural center of Bali, at least by westerners. For sure it has more than its fair share of arts and crafts and the Balinese who live there are extremely serious about their ceremonies and dances.

Sharyn's trip to Bali - November 2005: Ubud
The market hasn't changed at all, whatever is on sale in Kuta is on sale here about 5-10% cheaper. I did however manage to find some scarves here which I had despaired of every seeing again and there was possibly a better range of table linen. I succumbed and bought one the thousands of cat carvings for my feline-friendly mother. We had an OK lunch at one of the restaurants heading out of Ubud into the hills-but personally I would recommend going to one of the bigger hotel/resorts if you want a truly glorious view/meal experience of the sort shown in brochures.

Ubud: Who is it good for?
Ubud is located roughly north of Kuta and is about 90 minutes away. Touted as an arts center the town of Ubud is ringed by other villages all specializing in different arts and crafts. Penestenan for example makes beaded purses and Petulu does wood carvings. If you are artistically inclined you will find Ubud to be a rich location. Dancers, sculptors and painters seem to be around every corner. Downtown Ubud rather compact and along Jl. Raya Ubud you will find some very good restaurants such as Arys Warung and Casa Luna.
