Set amid jungle ravines and rolling emerald foothills, Ubud has long been the centre of Bali’s artisanal traditions and spiritual life. The town itself is no longer the peaceful hippie village it once was, but the wellness scene here is booming. Yoga schools, meditation centres, and all manner of raw and vegan cuisine abound. If the town centre is too busy for you, tranquil nature and temples are all nearby, from sunrise hikes up Mount Batur to iconic temples like Pura Tirta Empul (which is even prettier in person).
