Top Four Places to Visit in and around Bali

Ubud

Ubud is pretty away from the beaches. It is considered the cultural center of Bali, where you will discover the art and spirit of Bali and learn about Balinese religion through paintings, dance, and other art forms. You could drink a beer while watching a local band perform, but most people come here for the cultural appreciation.

Nusa Lembongan

This tiny island off the coast of Bali is where many people miss their journey plans, but it is a must-see. It is the perfect place to stay for a couple of nights. The roads are not good, but the island itself is so beautiful and quiet.

Sanur

Sanur is an especially relaxing beach town. It's close to the airport and Kuta. It's also the starting place to explore Nusa Lembongan.

Kuta

The beach of Kuta is great for surfing. It is crowded and you won't get far without someone trying to get you to rent a surfboard or buy something. The main town is a mixture of market stands and shopping malls containing the biggest brands, from Zara to Ralph Lauren. The familiarity of the western style shops and restaurants won't give anyone too much of a culture shock.
