Being the capital city and the centre of Bali’s economy, Denpasar may at first seem ill-adapted for tourism. But what most newcomers might not know is that it’s actually the home of several historical, multi-cultural, traditional, and religious gems. There are museums and monuments from the Dutch colonial period, and even more recent years while ancient temples will surprise you with their beauty and spiritual atmosphere.
Denpasar’s many public facilities hold various public events, whether it’s a big annual happening like the Bali Arts Festival or just a weekly soccer school practice. Have a walk around its two large green squares, although you should be extra careful when crossing the streets as the traffic can get very busy.
Denpasar means “to the north from the market” and the town is widely known and esteemed for its shopping centres; from bargaining at market stalls to fixed-price name brand stores, your every shopping need and desire will be fulfilled here.
