At first glance, Ubud’s bustling main street seems like an odd place to search for “Old Bali”… but it’s there if you know where to look!

Highlights

  • Immerse yourself in Bali's enchanting past.
  • Uncover Ubud's soul: A journey through time.
  • Experience Ubud's history and culture on foot.

Description

A royal gate built by a 116 year old sculptor. A magical meeting between two rivers. A multi-tiered shrine to the gods. A testament to the early alliance between Balinese and Western artists. This walk will explore the old among the new, as we travel through ‘modern’ Ubud in a quest to uncover the past. Along the way, we’ll discuss the development of this area from the suburbs to the hub of downtown Ubud. Sites visited: Pura Gunung Lebah (Campuhan Temple) Campuhan Bridge Museum Puri Lukisan (The Palace of Paintings) Puri Agung Ubud (Ubud Royal Palace) Puri Kantor Where: Near Murni’s Warung. The exact tour meeting point will be emailed upon booking. When: 8:30am For private tours and other times, please contact us. Accessibility: As our walking tours take place around historic landmarks, there are aspects of our tours that we are unable to alter. These include uneven temple stairs, steep gradients and patchy sidewalks. Guests should be physically capable of climbing steps and prepared to walk around an urban environment for up to 3 hours. Weather: There will be times where the weather may affect the tour start time. We operate rain or shine but if the conditions are severe, such as an intense downpour, we’ll call you before the start. Consider this part of your Bali adventure! Environmental Commitment: We, at Ubud Story Walks, want to do our part and decrease the plastic in Bali’s rivers. Please bring a reusable bottle for water refills.
