Ubud

After finishing traveling in Indonesia and Malaysia 3 Month ago, it is time to share some impressions and some travel tips with you.

Accommodation:

Hibiscus Cottage: Small and quite cottage in the rice fields behind Jalan Bisma. The breakfast is, as you can read everywhere, just super delicious.  Patrick stayed there before 2 years ago and had a nice and relaxed stay back than. This time, we experienced some difficulties with the landlords, starting with day trips at rip-off rates, paying stuff which were broken before.

Food and Drinks:

Semu Jaen: Small restaurant which you can find in the middle of the Jalan Bisma. Fusion Kitchen with Balinese spices. They offer you various teas, iced teas and juices, which are super tasty. Not the cheapest but never regretted.

Umah Pizza: If you need to escape from rice and other asian food. Umah offers you probably the best pizza on Bali. You can find them also in Jalan Bisma, right across the street from Semu Jaen.

Maha Bar&Restaurant: After a trip to the Ubud Monkey Forest, you probably need some refreshments . Maha can be found in the Jalan Monkey Forest just max. 5 min away from the entrance of the Monkey Forest. They offer fresh juices and fusion kitchen.

Sites and Impressions:

When talking about Ubud, many people name the typical sites: Palace, Temples, Mt. Batur.

Ubud Palace

Unfortunately the package tourist from the beach resorts in the south/west of Bali come to Ubud for 1-2 days and does exactly this program.

But in our opinion, if you really want to relax and calm down and enjoy Ubud, just have a walk in the rice fields and the canyons around Ubud.
