What is in the Bali directory
Built from open map data, kept current, and never ranked by who paid, because nobody can pay. Placement is not for sale on NUM. Counted November 8, 2026.
Bali at a glance
An island province east of Java, and the only Hindu-majority province in Indonesia. People come for the south coast beaches and surf, the temples, and the rice terraces and arts around Ubud. The south, from the airport up to Canggu, is the most built-up part.
Known for
Uluwatu Temple Pura Luhur Uluwatu
Sea temple on a cliff about 70 m above the ocean at the tip of the Bukit Peninsula, with a Kecak dance at sunset.
Tanah Lot Pura Tanah Lot
Temple on a rock off the Tabanan coast, one of Bali's main sea temples, reachable on foot only at low tide.
Jatiluwih rice terraces
Terraced paddies at about 700 m in Tabanan, watered by the subak system and part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Babi guling
Spit-roasted suckling pig stuffed with spices and greens, usually served with lawar rice; Gianyar is known for it.
Monkey Forest Road, Ubud Jalan Monkey Forest
Ubud's main street, running from Ubud Palace (Puri Saren Agung) down to the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary.
Getting there
Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) is at Tuban in Badung, about 13 km south of Denpasar and beside Kuta. Most visitors take a taxi or a ride-hailing car (Grab or Gojek) from arrivals; Ubud is about 1 h 30 min by car. A public Trans Metro Dewata bus also serves the airport, but routes and hours change; check the MitraDarat app first.
Getting around
There is no rail. Most visitors use a car with a driver, ride-hailing apps or a rented scooter; Trans Metro Dewata buses run six routes across Denpasar, Badung, Gianyar and Tabanan.
When to go
The drier months run roughly April to September. The west monsoon brings rain from about October to April, heaviest from December to March. On Nyepi, the Balinese day of silence (8 March 2027), the whole island and the airport shut for 24 hours.
Local tip
At Uluwatu Temple the macaques grab sunglasses, phones, hats and flip-flops. Put them away before you walk the cliff path.
