Bathe in the holy waters at Tirta Empul water temple or marvel at the Tegenungan and Kanto Lampo Waterfalls. Take a leisurely stroll along Campuhan Ridge Walk at sunset, admire the views from Tegalalang Rice Terrace, or escape to the tranquil surrounds of Saraswati Temple. Art lovers can make a beeline for Blanco Renaissance Museum, Puri Lukisan Museum, Neka Art Museum, Agung Rai Museum of Art, and Ubud Art Market. Watch a traditional Balinese dance performance at Puri Saren Royal Ubud Palace. Go water rafting on the rapids of Ayung River or embark on a thrilling Bali Eco Cycling tour to Mt Batur and beyond.
