What to do and see in Bali, Indonesia: The Best Performances

May 31, 2021 Hana Mouser

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.

Reviewed By ramyams27 - Bangalore District, India

Its like a dance drama based on Ramayana. It is performed using during the evening in amphitheater like place with sea in the background. The seats gets filled up very quick so be on time. You get to see the various characters from Ramyana like Ram, sita , Ravan and Hanuman and the Hanuman character will suddenly pop in the middle of the crowd.

Do not miss this beautiful show involving gorgeous costumes, outstanding stage props and lighting. The performers were extremely skilled and the dances and acrobatics were on par with a Broadway show or a Las Vegas show. We bought our tickets online directly from the Devdan official site for the B row tickets , paying IDR 500K per person. Initially the payment did not go through because they use Doku payBuddy payment system. However when we tried after arriving in Bali, the payment went through right away. So be patient. We had to go to the box office to pick up the actual paper tickets half an hour before the show. Everything went very smoothly. Though I paid for the B tickets, we got upgraded and seated in the second row from the stage which was wonderful as a lot of the performers got off the stage and performed in front of the audience with a lot of audience interaction. Since we were staying in a hotel in Nusa Dua, we took a taxi from the hotel which cost us IDR 90k for the round trip. Overall cost with transportation and tickets came to about $38.00 USD per person which was very reasonable for a 90 minute show. We would definitely recommend this show as it is not to be missed. The auditorium was air conditioned so it was comfortable inside.
