Top 10 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Bali, Indonesia

November 2, 2021 Harland Bartelt

Bali is a living postcard, an Indonesian paradise that feels like a fantasy. Soak up the sun on a stretch of fine white sand, or commune with the tropical creatures as you dive along coral ridges or the colorful wreck of a WWII war ship. On shore, the lush jungle shelters stone temples and mischievous monkeys. The “artistic capital” of Ubud is the perfect place to see a cultural dance performance, take a batik or silver-smithing workshop, or invigorate your mind and body in a yoga class.

Setia Darma House of Mask and Puppets

Reviewed By CKF

We saw Setia Darma House of Mask and Puppets recommended in a guide book and put it on our list while in Ubud. First, adjacent to the parking lot, you'll see a small gift shop, selling authentic Balinese masks, shadow puppets, and jewelry. We liked this, but is was rather underwhelming and we sighed. We thought there would be more. Well, keep walking! You WILL find more! On the other side of a park-like green space you will find a museum housed in four buildings (at least). The masks range from tiny to huge, multi-person varieties, meant to be worn during annual festivals and such. The masks came in every size, shape and facial expression. WOW! We went from being underwhelmed to overwhelmed! You will marvel at the shadow puppet collection and the intricate artistry and craftsmanship on display. How could we be the only visitors there? Spent so much time browsing and reading all the cards (English included) that our guide must have wondered where we went. Well designed, well planned, lots of space to walk and admire. What a find! Do not miss this hidden treasure, just a short distance from the Elephant Cave (which was a let down). ENJOY!

I was looking for somewhere to buy antique beads and was thrilled to find this store. The owner is an extremely knowledgable ex-pat with extensive experience selling antiques of all kinds but has a specialised knowledge of antique beads from all over the world. He was so friendly, helpful and a delight to shop with. He also makes his own jewellery with the beads if you’re just looking for something unique to take home from your trip instead of the usual en masse product sold everywhere.

Very interesting and high quality range of beautiful Art pieces at Purpa ! We bought 2 paintings, one on site and a second about a week after leaving Bali. Ari and Sebastien are sincere and engaging. They love Art and were very warm and friendly in sharing their knowledge and helping us to choose our paintings Ari was very professional and helpful in helping arrange and monitor the delivery of our second painting by courier. We are very happy with our experience with Purpa and intend to visit Ari and Sebastien again this year :)

I really liked this musuem. Food and talking to locals are two of the best ways to learn about a culture. So is sitting back and observing it. So, also - is art. There is loads to learn about the Ubud and Balinese culture at this musuem. Once again, lovely airy buildings to wander through a short taxi ride up from the main street. Well worth a few hours of wandering around.

Museum PASIFIKA

​Visiting the Pasifika art collection is one of a time opportunity to relax in an oasis of tranquillity and to view an extraordinary collection of paintings and other artworks. It is housed in an exquisite modern Balinese building designed by Popo Danes, one of the most celebrated Balinese architect. There will be Indonesian and Balinese artworks but also numerous paintings by those bohemian artists who came from Europe and other parts of the world starting from the 1930s, succumbing to the spells of the enchanting tropical Island. Stroll in the well-manicured garden, take some selfies, taste local delicacies with a 'kopi Bali', and above all enjoy the art. For a complete Bali experience, come and visit Pasifika.
