Best Area for Shops in Bali




Bali is not only known for its beauty, it is also a shopping paradise for those who visit. Shopping in Bali gives you an opportunity to find interesting purchases and to enjoy a unique shopping experience. As most shops in Bali do not accept credit cards, it is advisable for you to have cash ready in hand. Bargaining is common when you go shopping in Bali especially for small shops and markets like the resort area in Seminyak; it is one thing what makes shopping in Bali is more fun. And in one area, you might find some shops selling similar products, so if you are not happy with the price in one shop, all you have to do is to check the price in the other shops and start making comparison.

Where can you shop in Bali?

In Gianyar you can find wooden handicrafts, handmade textiles and paintings. And not only that, you can also visit the workshop where the craftsman work.

If art is your thing, then Ubud is the place for it. A home to talented artists, you can find endless variety of paintings, from traditional Balinese paintings to modern ones. And there are also many galleries of well-known artists for you to visit.

In Tegalalang, you can find a large variety of wooden carvings, such as wooden animal figures, frames, or masks.

Celuk is the center of silver and gold jewelries. The quality of the jewelries is good, the price is reasonable, and you can even do a custom jewelry.

If you are looking for souvenirs to bring back home, Sukawati and Ubud markets sell them at very good prices, and they have many different kinds for you to choose.

You can also find handicrafts, paintings, souvenirs and jewelries in Kuta. But as Kuta is a main tourist area, the prices are higher than the places mentioned above. If you do not have much time in your holiday to go shopping, then Kuta is a good place for it.

So what are you waiting for? Plan your next holiday in Bali and enjoy a unique shopping experience in one of the most beautiful places in the world.
