The Ubud Royal Palace, known as Puri Saren Agung, is an iconic historical site in Bali, situated in the heart of Ubud. The palace traces its origins to around 1640 when it was first constructed as a residence for a branch of Ubud's royal family. Over time, it evolved into the majestic structure we see today, largely due to the significant contributions of King Ida Tjokorda Putu Kandel during the early 1800s.

Right in the heart of downtown Ubud near the Puri Lukisan Museum, stands Pura Dalem, a temple steeped in spiritual significance and cultural heritage. As one of the main temples in the area, it plays a vital role in the religious life of the local community, serving as a sacred space for worship, ceremonies and traditional performances.
