"Bali" Ubud by Weny
Ubud Travel Guide: 520 reviews and 1,297 photos
The epicenter of this legendary island is Ubud. The mystical hill town that sits in the foothills of ancient mountains in central Bali. Part tourist magnet, part art colony Ubud is unlike any place most people will ever visit. However, as much as I liked Bali it was not my favorite island in Indonesia. It was the most glamorous, the most accessible, and the most expensive.
- Pros:The stuff of dreams everyone should have the chance to visit Bali.
- Cons:Lots of tourists and hustling-after travelling in Indonesia you get use to touts.
- In a nutshell:Beautiful and open to visitors; a nice intro to the archipelago.
