There are a couple of sights in Ubud, chiefly the royal palace and some temples. But these are far from must-see sights, and the chief joy of Ubud is just walking about the streets, past all sorts of cafes, small inns and especially art galleries. Almost everyone in Ubud is either making art, or selling it, to the point where the sheer volume of art produced gets to be pretty overwhelming. We looked through some of the galleries, but couldn't really get excited enough to make a purchase. But we enjoyed the walkabout and halfhearted shopping nonetheless.
