  • Very beautiful temple, location in the center of Ubud, close to Ubud palace and market. Good for photos, walking with your partner, there is an entry ticket.

  • As with Ubud Palace, defo worth checking out if I’m the area already. Bit wet when we went but still very nice. Photos show it looks stunning at night! Like many places you cannot enter the gate, but very nice to see regardless. Surrounded by water and plants is a nice touch. Starbucks at the entrance. Walk don’t drive as again it’s a nightmare on the street. Free entry!
  • Saraswati Temple is in midst of Ubud near the market area. It is a temple dedicated to goddess Saraswati, who is the goddess of knowledge in Hinduism. Locals said that ceremonies are held in this temple regularly for students. As tourist we are not allowed to enter the temple, but we can see it from outside. There is a pond outside which is full of lotus flowers and a narrow path leads to the temple. It's adorned with beautiful rock sculptures and artwork. There are no entry fees to go here. You can give it a quick visit while in central Ubud.
