Known as Bali’s art and culture capital, Ubud is the ultimate place to enjoy an exciting and beautiful traditional dance performance. Dances are used for many different reasons in Bali, from sacred ceremonies within temples, to pure entertainment and fun. Some of the most ironically Balinese dances are the Legong, Kecak, and Barong Dances. You can catch one of these performances at a range of venues - anywhere from the Royal Palace to restaurants and public spaces in Ubud central and surrounding villages.
