Ubud Royal Palace

Puri Saren Ubud, widely known as the Ubud Royal Palace, stands as a magnificent testament to Balinese heritage and a pivotal cultural center. Strategically located in the heart of Ubud, directly opposite the traditional art market, this palace once served as the official residence for the Ubud King and continues to embody the rich artistic and traditional life of the region. Built during the reign of Ida Tjokorda Putu Kandel (1800-1823) with the involvement of numerous local artists, the palace is an exquisite example of Balinese traditional architecture, featuring intricate stone carvings and maintaining its historical characteristics. Visitors can explore various architectural marvels, including the grand Wantilan (an open meeting hall and event space), the magnificent entrance gates adorned with reliefs and statues, the enchanting Kori Agung, and even glimpse the ancient King's Throne and traditional Gamelan instruments used in ceremonies. The palace actively preserves and promotes Balinese culture, notably hosting captivating traditional Legong dance performances in the evenings, which tell stories from the Mahabrata and Ramayana epics. As a repository of traditional culture, Ubud Royal Palace offers a unique window into the kingdom's past and its enduring influence on contemporary Balinese arts.
