UBUD AND BEYOND (why this is the best area to stay in Bali)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 фев 2025
- If I was to stay long term in Bali (or just as a home base), Ubud would be my top choice. Not only does the central area of Ubud have a lot to offer in and of itself like the Monkey Forest, Campuhan Ridge, beautiful temples, the best yoga studios, incredible restaurants... but it's also a great jump off point for seeing more of the north of the island. It is a very lush and green area, more susceptible to rain (just so you're aware), but really a must see on your trip to Bali. Join me for a tour of the central part of the city, as well as 2 big day trip recommendations: The Gate of Heaven Temple in the east of the island, as well as sunrise trekking the active volcano Mt Batur. Hope you enjoy the video and find it helpful! xx

I use both of these companies depending on the destination and requirements of entry. If you are going to be abroad for a long time and/or don't need as much coverage, I would recommend SafetyWing. BUT you cannot purchase SafetyWing WHILE in Canada or USA. You can only purchase once already abroad. Hey Mondo is more expensive but offers a higher level of coverage including plans that have trip cancellation/interruption insurance. Hey Mondo would be the better insurance to use if you need travel medical insurance when applying for a visa. Both companies cover covid.

Nice place in ubud
Bali is so many things to so many different people. However, I believe the truly unique aspect of Bali is it's culture. Sure it has nice beaches, volcanoes, waterfalls, marine wildlife, surfing spots, nightclubs, resorts and cafes, but the most unique and visit worthy aspect is Balinese culture. The dances, music, painting, sculptures, village traditions, wet agriculture, story-telling still thrive in an authentic setting.
Unlike Cambodia's Angkor Wat, Peru's Macchu Picchu, Burma's Bagan and Java's Borobudur or Egypt's Pyramids, the Balinese culture that created the rich architecture is still alive.
Whereas the Incas, Khmers, Burmese and Javanese are not 'living' in the culture that created all those architectural wonders, the Balinese are.
Agreed, balinese people are living with their traditions and cultures with or without tourists
Thank you for your appreciation about my country Indonesia 🇮🇩 especially for Bali. Warm love and big hugs from me in Medan - Indonesia 🇮🇩
Bali adalah keturunan dari jawa
JFC Jember fashion carnival adalah pameran budaya nasional dan internasional.. seperti karnaval di Brazil
Jangan membandingkan budaya negara lain,, kalau Jawa itu masih banyak budaya, anda sendiri yang tidak mau mencari atau tidak tahu. Jawa memiliki 147 gunung 🗻.. budayanya juga kaya.
A very helpful and informative video thanks Alina 👍
I miss Ubud so much.. such a wonderful place
Have been going to Ubud for over 30 years. It has changed enormously in that time but I continue to treasure my trips there. Good selection of highlights - Kafe, Campuhan Ridge walk, Mt Batur, Saraswasti Temple. Note that there is a restaurant of many years standing which fronts on to the temple and its lotus pond called The Lotus. Good food both Balinese and Western and an excellent place to view dance performances at the temple.
Hands down the most comprehensive video I've seen from this region.The super cute Balinese monkeys made my day! 🐒😁
Aw thank you! They are pretty cute lol

Wow watching your video is kindly reminder of our honeymoon in Ubud. My husband and I stayed in Ubud for 5 days and our resort was close to some of attraction places. 5 minutes walk to monkey forest, 10 minutes walk to Ubud Palace and Saraswasti temple and 30 minutes walk to Campuhan Ridge walk. We went hike to Mt Batur as well where I broke my knees and had my husband carried me through our walk down the mountain lol. It was such great experience and can't wait to come back and visit Bali. By the way Bali is like my hometown because I grew up there and having come back to where I grew up is awesome feelings
What is the name of the resort that you enjoyed your days? Thanks!
I am very proud, when I see many people who come to Indonesia, especially Bali, I hope Bali tourism will always prosper, thank you for visiting Bali🙏😊
Love it! We can totally see you living in Bali!❤
I would 100% come back!
If Alina lived there or anywhere in southeast Asia, she would be happy because housing and other elements of the cost of living are low and quite affordable. In the West, $30-50 meals with drinks in a restaurant are now a thing. And renting a decent place in a safe neighbourhood can literally cost an arm and a leg. Our inflationary times.
@@NormanF62 that's why I saw a lot of Europeans on tiktok coming to Indonesia especially Bali

Great video Alina!!! You are making me want to return to Bali. I loved it so much when we visited over 12 yrs ago. Looks like you are having a great time and thanks for sharing your experience with us. :)
I hope you do return sometime!
Very good coverage of a beautiful country.

I did enjoy watching this, lovely. I am very glad that you did so much in Ubud! Yes I am with you on that Ubud is my kind of place as well, as it feels "quieter" and much more grounding. I agree that I'd rather to focus lesser places than moving so quickly. Enjoy Nusa Penida ❤
Hi Alina! Ubud and Bali are truly wonderful and amazing! Great video clip! Thanks for sharing the highlights of your visit!
ruclips.net/video/TGfswLT1w5A/видео.html
I loved Ubud and the area. It has changed a bit since I was there and I'll have to stop back again one day. Great memories, great video Alina! Thanks for sharing! Keep on being your own kind of Alina!!
As a travel vlogger that dreams of visiting such places some day, you have no idea how this made me so happy. Thank you!
Aw I'm so glad! Hope you visit all the places of your dreams!
Great video! We're heading there in April four our commitment ceremony and honeymoon. We can't wait!
Alina, this video was so well done, beautifully paced with a wonderful musical score. And not to forget the beautiful green lush landscape. The next time we go to visit my brother in Indonesia, we will take trip there. A great choice Alina. Sending you much love🙏❤🙏 from Richmond, Va. Harriet, Jim and Yuki

Wow, your video makes Ubud look absolutely stunning! I keep going there whenever I make a trip to Bali to get some cooler temperature, greenery and endless temples.

Canadian living on Campuhan for a year. You showed my villa. It’s an amazing spot. Even saw the cover of Eat, Pray, Love yesterday with it on the cover. So glad you enjoyed it too.
Thank you Alina. This has to be one of my favorite videos. Bali is just so different than anything I have ever experienced. So green and beautiful it is just hard to believe almost.
I really like watching your videos, a lot of editing on the pictures, it's so professional, not make me dizzy....thank you for your works, perfect.
Thank you!
How lovely, very nice video! I'm putting Ubud on my to do list.
You absolutely should!
Hi Alina, saw your video n booked the photography tour n it was amazing. Thank you.
Aw I’m so happy to hear that! 🙂
I absolutely loved Bali and Ubud was the best place to be based. My time there was way too short as well and I could happily spend a year there. You explored some places that I hadn’t been to and it makes me want to go back. One year sounds about right. 😃
Love the way you deliver the story, how you talk, and very clean quality of sound. No noice in the back... Keep it up..
Nice one - thanks for sharing Alina 🙋♂
Hi Alina! I just saw your Hoian, Singapore, Bali video and also the one you leaving Canada 😔 I look forward watching other videos which I travelled too and didn’t get to yet…for some reason I feel a connection, I wish you safe travels…I hope one day we can connect 🙏
Hi Alina, Guest house is so pretty and luxury with cheap price with internet facility. It's also great to have wide range of breakfast menu. Mexican wrap is looking a sound extra tasty. Monkeys are really so cute and lovely. You are precious when you are guiding the upcoming visitors to take care the instructions how to behave in monkeys park. Main city temple is so calm and an amazing place. Also, like the strip design of your skirt so cute and your personality is like princes. Your meal is so comprehensive to take. To take the picture on the game in the temple is smart idea. I always like to go on hiking so it is wonderful to be the part of your tour. Valcano sight is so unique and like it. Over all, this video is on top in any aspect. Gives score of 10/10.
Wow Bali looks spectacular. Great video Alina
Thank you for your video. We are going in Sept and I cannot wait. We booked the photography tour you recommend. Thanks again
I'm so glad and hope you have an amazing time :)
What a great place to see more than you will ever have time for without moving around to as many places sometimes beyond humanly possible. You are in the right place, and will never lack anyplace to explore, that is for sure!! Thanks so much, Alina! Your shares are always a highlight of our days, will always answer them as soon as we can. Sometimes the internet will be weak here for hours and it's best to just wait to view them. Keep safe and we will always look for your wonderful smile, it is the highlight of who you are!!! Cheers!!!!! ❤👍😎

Aw thank you very much, Michael!
Hi Alina ,
Ubud is really awesome and promising and it has a lot common with the country i belong. Let me tell you something the monkeys are really beautiful and i like them. I have also been personally atacked by monkey's but despite that i really adore them. I just love the temples and the spirituality they evoke in our mind. So aesthetic and so soothing for the mind and body. Wow the food is so similar to our country as our food are also spicy and delicious. All i can say is that this place is a home away from home, far from the madding crowd.
Ubud in two weeks after a stop in Singapore. Staying just a short walk north of the main Ubud center road for a couple of weeks. This is my third trip, and I can't wait. Excellent video.
Hope you have a great trip!
Oh my god, that's beautiful! I'm Canadian too and I would love to go somewhere tropical like this, especially since winter is coming :)
Hello
welcome to bali
You are a beautiful woman , than you.
On the Campuhan Ridge walk do stop for a cold coconut drink + view..delightful!
Always welcome here ♥️
Nicely edited video. I cannot wait to travel to Bali next summer. 🏝
Welcome to Bali, a little island of Indonesia, thank you so much for your explain with ur see it...Nice to see you Alina....😍😍😍🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨
This brings back memories.
My friend & I rented motorcycles & rode around Ubud. The road was slippery after the rain earlier that day. He fell off his motorcycle & scratched his right knee. Nothing serious, though. He was fine.
Hi Alina. I loved your video. It shows a lot of what Ubud is really like and not much has changed when I was last there in 1997. I stayed at the Tempuah Spa Resort and it was magical. The resort is literally entirely carved onto the side of s ravene, with water falls and caves for our rooms. Meditation music and incense sticks all over too. Ubud is truly the heart of Balinese culture and very peaceful. Thanks again.
bali has become another real adventure series. really like the series adventures . thanks for the trip.
My pleasure!
I come from Indonesia, we are proud to have Bali. Thank you very much because you have introduced Indonesia and Bali to the world through your RUclips channel
It's so nice to see Cafe Wayan in Ubud I went there for the first time in 1996 and Monkey Forest Street has changed so much these days 🌞beautiful video thanks for the reminder
Another fantastic video Alina. Thank you for sharing. Bali looks incredible and appreciate you bringing a part of it to You Tube armchair travelers like me.
You are spot on Alina. We stayed at Ubud for most of our stay in Bali. Such a lovely place, such friendly people, food that is theobroma. Your video is very lovely that reminds me of Ubud. Thanks Alina. It's a place one would love to visit many more times. I had the same feel wish I had time to stay for an year.
I am flying from Canada and I am staying in Ubud for a month in July of this year, for my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training. This is so helpful! I feel the magic of the town from your video. Thank you so much! Can't wait
Aw I’m so glad! I hope you have a wonderful time ❤️
I think who is unmatchable youtuber tourist in the whole world? Alina yesssssd💞

Very lucky to have watched your well informed and enjoyable video covering scenic and other attractions in Ubud. I had visited Ubud a number of times but did not get to see many of the nice places you visited. Fine choice of background music. Thanks Alina.
I'm going to Ubud later this year. I'm going to try your favourite Kafe, and maybe even that guest house! I'm for sure going to see a number of the places you showed us. This was a really nice show and tell. I like your chill editing style, compared to the high energy cuts from others. I found my accommodation in Canggu watching another person's video too. When the creators walk around the streets, you see all the place names and signs for accomm, and can google them to check it out. In the wrong context that would be creepy, but in this case it's just so helpful for a first timer to Bali!
I'm glad and hope you have a wonderful time!
I enjoyed the procession & much respect for all the traditions adhered to. I will wear my sunglasses 👓 .

Hello Alina, your video is interesting, it's cool that you show these tourist places in Bali Philippines, thanks for taking the time to do them and I hope to continue seeing more trips. A hug

Nice vlog Alina! Grettings from me! Don't forget be happy, huh!👍😍
It seems like you're right on with your style of entertaining, informative commentary, & what a beautiful place, & thank goodness for algorithms & the I love girls thing (a gender reference etc., etc.). thanks for sharing, enjoy
Nice VLOG. Ubud is nice place to stay for few days. Apart from beautiful scenery, there are great activities to do also, white water rafting and ATV to name a few.
Awesome video as usual!! Thanks for all your behind-the-scenes work to entertain us. Safe travels to your next destination!
Thank you! Just arrived to the new place!
It’s really very greener and beautiful 🤩 love it 😍
looks beautiful there,safe travels Alina
This video is fantastic and I watched it with a great pleasure, as Bali is so beautiful and it brings a lot of serenity and peace. The people seems to be friendly and the environment so various.

Alina, you seem to have a love and hate relationship with the monkeys lol. I really enjoyed watching your videos on your trip in Indonesia! I first came across your RUclips channel a few years ago and recently came across yours again when you're visiting Indonesia.
I really like what you tell me about Bali.
My husband and I love your videos we are following you ❤️ 😊
Hello Alina, it's raining cats and dogs here. Love to see you ok!# Lovely place!#
I could not imagine that Indonesia has a natural paradise!
😉
Im from bali
Wow ❤
You’re right there’s little natural beauty in Indonesia, but the rice paddies are beautiful. There are very few national parks and the beaches are full of litter, sewerage and pollution.
Still there are some terrific places to enjoy a holiday.
Welcome to beautyful indonesia
I am Indonesia and i wanna say thank you Alina..,.welcome to my country.
Looks amazing!! I am going to be there next year and am so excited 😊
It's nice you got to stay in Ubud and then went to east Bali. Great photos. I lived in Ubud for many years and am friends with the owners of the Kafe. You need to learn that C is pronounced Cha so when you explain about Candidasa or Campuan. It sounds like Champuan and Chandidasa. I'm glad you like Bali. Great work.
Loverly vid Alina what a place !,Ive always been turned off going to Bali cause of the over tourism on the south coast but in this vid the alternative is stunning .
I loved this.. been doing some research on Bali and this is the one..
I’m glad it was helpful!
Lovely video, thank you! Straightforward, Not all the hipster/look at me, look at me!
You captured Ubud beautifully! I have been to Bali a number of times. Ubud is my favorite spot on the island! As there are so many. I prefer Ubud too! Planning return trip! Thank you for reminding me and filling me with joy!
Your videos are excellent!! Thanks Alina!
Complete review regarding visiting Ubud. If Possible please make other review on other in Indonesia that you visited.
Many thanks Alina for this interesting video about Ubud, there's so much to see indeed as you said that this video gives just a taste of it, I agree one can spend months in Bali and still discover amazing places any day.
For those who prefer to avoid the busy Ubud center, there are many options just out of town with great rooms overlooking paddy fields, with daily views on Batur and Agung. There a scooter will be a must to get around.
Candidasa more on the eastern coast is another great location to explore the countryside, small desa, incredible temples and secluded beaches. Direct contact with villagers in the valleys who rarely see Westeners is usually rewarding as Balinese know what hospitality really means, lots of smiles guaranteed !
Being lucky to be fluent in Bahasa and familiar with many islands of Indonesia, it's wonderful to meet and discuss with so many people so spontaneously. Indonesia lovers can't help returning to Bali time and again...
Really fab reporting Alina! Luv your work and am happy for you in a place offering beautiful views, great cuisine, and variety. 👩🏻❤👩🏻👩🏻❤👩🏻 I am well these days!
Aw I'm so happy to hear that! Sending you a big hug!
