The owner and founder, Agung Rai:
After I saw the collections of The Puri Lukisan Museum and The Neka Museum I knew that my future was determined. I was fortunate in buying and selling paintings and starting to collect. That must have been around 1980. I trained myself in seeking paintings that moved me, paintings I really connected to and that reflected the depth and sensitivity of the artist’s soul. I always felt a spiritual connection to the art I bought.
The result of my collecting passion is now on display in the Museum that carries my name: Museum Seni Agung Rai / Agung Rai Museum of Art (ARMA) and includes works not only by leading Balinese artists like Ida Bagus Made Poleng, AA Gede Sobrat, I Gusti Nyoman Lempad, I Gusti Ketut Kodo, AA Gde Meregeg and Nyoman Meja, but by artists from all over the Indonesian archipelago. You will find renowned names as Affandi, Sudjono, Srihadi Soedarsono, Raden Saleh and many others, but also work of upcoming masters I put my faith in like Putu Wirantawan. Since the beginning of the 20th century the culture and natural beauty of Bali moved and inspired numerous foreign artists to produce great works of art. Some of them stayed for a few months, others spent their entire life on the island. The ARMA collection includes works by Rudolph Bonnet, Arie Smit, Le Majeur de Merpres, Willem Dooijewaard, Willem Hofker, Hans Snel and Donald Friend. Walter Spies was a visionary who build bridges between The Western and Balinese culture and has therefore a special place in our collection.
To guarantee and sustain its continuity, the Museum is managed by The ARMA Foundation. The funds raised by the Foundation (including your welcome contribution) are used to contribute to our efforts in treasuring, promoting and developing the Arts and Culture, not only of Bali, but of all Indonesia. For me, what has been accomplished up till now is just a beginning. My dream of continuously being able to contribute in preserving and growing the art of Bali. In particular of Ubud, is still very much alive. I am delighted that your visit to ARMA helps you to share my dream with me. May Ubud remain the artistic centre of Bali for generations to come.

Badung is a regency which includes Kuta and Nusa Dua, famous destinations in Bali. Badung regency borders Buleleng regency on the north and Tabanan regency on the west, the Indian Ocean on the south, and Bangli, Gianyar, and Denpasar on the east.
There are many interesting destinations in Badung, such as Kuta Beach, Dreamland Beach, Batubolong Beach with its exotic views, Dukuh campground which is the heritage of the Mengwi Kingdom, and much more.
Badung regency was called Nambangan before I Gusti Ngurah Made Pamecutan became king of Badung in the last 18th century. In olden times, Denpasar, now the capital of Bali, was the capital city of Badung regency, but in 1992, Denpasar became a separate municipality and the capital city of the Badung regency was moved to Mengwi.
With the enactment of government regulation no. 67 in 2009, the capital was moved to a new city in Badung regency called Mangupura which includes 4 villages and 5 areas. November 16th is the anniversary of the Badung regency, which is held to celebrate the anniversary of Mangupura city being made the capital of the Regency by former president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
In Badung, there was a famous historical event knowns as the Puputan Badung War which took place on September 20, 1906. This war was triggered when a Chinese-flagged Chinese ship named Sri Komala ran aground on the Sanur coast in 1904, which was then part of Badung’s empire.
The Dutch East Indies government accused the local community of disarming and destroying the contents of the Sri Komala ship and demanded that the King of Badung be responsible for all damages by paying compensation of 3000 silver dollars and punishing those who damaged the ship. However, the King of Badung refused to pay any compensation. Because of his refusal, the Dutch East Indies government carried out a military expedition to Bali on September 20, 1906. They landed three infantry battalions and two artillery battalions to attack Badung. When the Dutch military entered the city gate, they were confronted by a crowd of people dressed in white who were ready to attack.
A war broke out between the Badung people led by the King of Badung and the Dutch East Indies military. It was called the Puputan War which means war to the point of death.

The island of Bali is one of the islands in Indonesia. With an island area of 153 km long and 112 km wide and an island area of 123.98 km2. Geographically, in the middle of the island of Bali, there are mountains stretching from west to east. Among these mountains there are a number of mountains as peaks such as: Mount Agung (3,142 m) meters, Mount Batur (1,717) meters, Mount Abang (2,276) meters, Mount Batukaru (2,276) meters. Mount Agung and Mount Batur are volcanoes. To the north and south of the mountains lies the mainland. There are Lake Batur with an area of 1,607.5 hectares, Lake Beratan 375.6 hectares, Lake Buyan 336 hectares, and Lake Tamblingan 110 hectares. Most rivers flow to the south, such as the Unda river, Petanu river, Ayung river, Pulukan river, loloan river, and others. +
Bangli Regency is located in the northeast of the city of Denpasar, about 40 km from the center of Denpasar and is the only district in Bali that does not have a coast. Bangli Regency is bordered by Buleleng Regency in the north, Klungkung and Karangasem in the east, Klungkung and Gianyar in the south, and Badung and Gianyar in the west. One popular tourist attraction in Bangli is Mount Batur and Lake Batur. Lake Batur which is the widest lake in Bali and is in the magnificent shadow of Mount Batur. In addition, Toyo Bungkah are hot springs which are believed by the Balinese people to cure various diseases, especially skin ailments.
Since 1991, the government of Bangli Regency has set 10 May 1204 as the anniversary of Bangli. The date traced from the inscription of Pura Kehen C issued by King Sri Adikunti Ketana who ruled Bangli in 1126 years Saka or 1204 AD. Before that, in the 11th century, there was an outbreak of disease which led people in droves to leave Bangli. According to the Pura Kehen inscription, when King Sri Adikunti Ketana recovered on May 10, 1204 , he ordered his son to invite the residents to return to Bangli to jointly build and repairing each other's houses. The king also ordered the population to procreate and the forest to be cleared to make rice fields and waterways. In addition, the king abolished taxes on the population and set the boundaries of the Bangli Regency.
May 10, 1453 was then chosen as the anniversary of Bangli Regency based on the thought that the Kehen C Inscription showed that Bangli became unified on that date following the king's boundaries. This inscription was the first to mention the name Bangli. In chronicles and folklore, the origin of the name Bangli comes from the word “Jarak Bang” or “Bangkliki.” It is said that Bangli was established over distance forests, but there are also those who say that Bangli comes from the word “banggi” which means it is less friendly. +

This Padukuhan is led and managed by a customary government structure called the "Ulu Apad" or tribal chief with the main duties and functions of organizing activities and the interests of carrying out traditional ceremonies and ceremonies. +
The history of Bebandem begins with the reign of the kingdom in Bali, which was ruled by Ida Dalem Waturenggong which was then ruled again by his descendants named Ida Dalem Kepakisan and the successor of the last king dynasty was Ida Dalem Ketut whose royal territory was in Klungkung Regency.
The name of the present village of Bebandem is taken from the name of I Gusti Bandem who is already well-known as a priest (Dukuh Bujangga), and of course as a tribute to him who has contributed his name is set to be the name of the village with the suffix 'Be' which when interpreted in Sanskrit means to reside/stay above. +

Buwit village is located in Tabanan regency. This village has a lot of potential in the fields of tourism and agriculture, and besides that there is also a jogging track in the middle of the rice fields. The rice fields are beautiful and large, which can be used as a tourism area and an area for exercising.
But unfortunately, there are problems with road access to get to that place. That's what prevents people from knowing about Buwit Village. The policies that should be made by the government to overcome these problems are as follows:
1. The government should provide assistance to build an access road to the jogging track.
2. The government should put up regulatory signs around the rice fields.
3. There is promotion in Buwit Village so that more people know about a good jogging track and more people will visit the jogging track in Buwit Village.
Hopefully the government can make policies to overcome these problems to improve traditional villages in Bali. +
Are you looking for a beautiful location to stay in a rural atmosphere? If so, come to Canggu Village, North Kuta District, Badung Regency, Bali. This is where beautiful views of rice fields and cool air meet the black volcanic sand beaches directly facing the Indian Ocean, and you don't need to compromise on food and nightlife.
As for the history, the origin of the name "Canggu" comes from its connection with the Majapahit kingdom of East Java. During the Majapahit era, Canggu was the name of a port located in Muara Kalibrantas. The King of Bali, Sri Semara Kepakisan, was invited by Hayam Wuruk who ruled Majapahit. But the King of Bali sent his governor named Kyai Petandakan instead. When Kyai was about to return to Bali, he was given a keris as a talisman to defend Bali. He boarded a boat in Begawan Canggu, pulled the keris out of the scabbard and waived it into the air, but the keris automatically returned to the scabbard. The keris was given the name Begawan Canggu. After arriving in Bali, Kyai Petandakan was officially granted the keris by the King of Bali in a place near Batu Bolong Beach, which is now known as Canggu Village.
Canggu village is growing with supporting facilities developing over time. Since 2000, tourism has developed and Canggu has began to attract investors. Based on 2017 data from the local village office, there are 479 accommodations including hotels, restaurants, villas, home stays, bars and other hotspots.
In the midst of tourism crowds, the Canggu community still cares about managing private land by developing agricultural land as a supporting sector. There are still many stretches of rice fields and subaks that you can find in the Canggu area. It is not uncommon for tourists to stop on the road to photograph the fields that are passed.

Desa adat (cultural villages) are distinct villages, characterized by houses that strictly adhere to traditional architecture, and the inhabitants usually perform more rituals and other social activities related to their religion, compared to the average modern individual. These kinds of villages often attract visitors who are curious about the lifestyle of older generations, although the local inhabitants have little interest in capitalizing on the potential for tourism.
Desa Penglipuran is one of those cultural villages. Located in Gianyar, in the gentle slopes of Mt. Batur, the village receives a daily dose of cool mountain breeze at 600 meters above sea level. If you ask the locals what the name Penglipuran means, you might receive more than one answer. Some might say it is derived from the phrase Pengeling Pura, which means to commemorate the elders. Others might say it is derived from the phrase Pelipur Lara, which means serenity, or peace obtained in solace. Both of these answers are correct as they are most probably a clever wordplay to describe the essence of the village.

He arrived in western Bali, precisely in Jembrana, then met the village leader at that time, I Gusti Ngurah Rangsasa. But according to the story, I Gusti Ngurah Rangsasa is a proud and authoritarian leader. Because he felt himself more powerful, then I Gusti Ngurah Rangsasa challenged Danghyang Dwijendara. At that time, Danghyang Dwijendara prayed to the temple and cupped his hands. Because of his supernatural power, the stone inside the temple was split and the temple building fell apart. Seeing the incident, I Gusti Ngurah Rangsasa felt defeated and ran away from his village.
After the incident, the stakeholders visited Danghyang Dwijendara. He begged that the temple be restored. Well, the request was granted, so that the collapsed temple then stood up again as before. The incident was later enshrined in the name of the temple. In Balinese, encak means collapsing or breaking. Then the temple is named Pura Gede Perancak.

Gunung Agung (Mount Agung) is the highest mountain on the small Indonesian island of Bali. Although peaks rise higher on Irian Jaya, Sumatra, Lombok, and Java, Bali's status as Indonesia's most popular tourist destination makes Agung perhaps the most-climbed high peak in the country.
Agung is a volcano with an enormous and very deep crater that occasionally vents out smoke and steam. The highest point is on the southwest part of the rim, a barren and rocky hill of fine volcanic rock. The summit area is above the treeline, due to the high winds and sterilizing effects of recent volcanic activity, but it is my understanding that the summit never sees any snow. Still, the weather of the surrounding rainforests of Bali is almost always cloudy, and the potentially awesome view of the entire island spread out beneath you is extrmely rare. Rinjani (12,224'/3726m) on the neighboring island of Lombok is often visble above the clouds, though. The most commonly given altitude for Agung is 3142m/10,308', but this is an old elevation that does not take into account a volcanic eruption in 1963. When I was on Bali, I calibrated my altimeter to zero at sea level, and found the summit to be 2920 m. I reset it to 3142 m, but back at sea level it read -222 m. I had nver experienced my altimter to be that far off, so was stumped until someone saw my account on the web and told me that the real elevation is 3014 m, so my altimeter was only off by 94 m, still a bit, but not as bad as I thought. +
Gunung Batukaru, sometimes spelled Batukau, is Bali's second-highest mountain at 2,276 m. It is the highest peak in the Bedugul volcanic area, but is dormant. Batukaru is worshipped by the Balinese, and has a temple, Pura Luhur Batukaru, devoted to it. Batukaru is relatively unpopular with climbers as it is covered in a dense forest which restricts views. Batukaru has a large crater, the largest on Bali, but this crater is open at the southern end, allowing the river Mawa to escape. It is this that gives it the name "Batukaru", which means "coconut shell" in Balinese. +

Mount Tapak (1909 masl) is an inactive volcano that, although no longer erupting, still has an active magma pathway that produces geothermal heat and hot springs scattered in the southern caldera wall area, especially in the Angseri region. As the seventh highest peak in Bali, this mountain is relatively easier to climb than Mount Pohen which is just a few kilometers to the south.
Mount Tapak is mentioned in ancient manuscripts in Bali, especially the Purana Bangsul Text which states that one of the important sacred places in the Beratan area in the past was the Terate Bang (Red Lotus) in Mount Tapak. Even now, the Terate Bang temple still stands at the foot of this mountain, as well as is the northern boundary of the Bali Botanical Garden. Because it is mixed with sulfur, the taste of holy water from the spring in this temple is a bit sour which makes it unique.
The word 'tapak' means flat because the top of this mountain is relatively flat. The geothermal project which was finally stopped a few decades ago is not far from this mountain and takes geothermal heat from the magma chamber of this mountain.
Mount Tapak is one of the youngest mountains to form in the Beratan Caldera. The oldest volcanoes in the caldera are Mount Sanghyang and Mount Pohen which have been inactive for thousands of years. +

Komaneka Fine Art Gallery features unique work by artists with new and exciting visions that reflect the lifestyles of contemporary connoisseurs.
Few people realize that Komaneka Resorts began as a gallery of fine art. In 1998, the founder of Komaneka — a son of Pande Suteja Neka, founder of the Neka Museum — created Komaneka Gallery on the Monkey Forest Road, dealing with only the best of contemporary Balinese and Indonesian art.
He built residential studios and invited top artists to come live and work there. But soon he found that visitors to Bali wanted to stay there, too. Before long, he upgraded the studios to create a small hotel, Komaneka at Monkey Forest, in a tropical garden with an infinity swimming pool.
Meanwhile Komaneka Fine Art Gallery thrived, and it is still one of the most important art galleries in Bali. The gallery is a large, handsome two-story building set back from the busy Monkey Forest Road in central Ubud.
Today its artists have reached national and international renown. Among the best known names are Pande Ketut Taman, Hanafi, Putu Sutawijaya, Wayan Sudarna Putra, Suklu, and Nyoman Erawan. One of the original artists was Nyoman Masradi, whose works have sold at auction for over a million dollars +
During the covid19 period the 'Livingin-gallery' was set up.
(Ubud, Bali – November 2021) Komaneka Fine Art Gallery is excited to invite their roster of Bali-based artists to “check-in” and work inside at the Gallery space in the ‘Living in Gallery’ program. Komaneka Fine Art Gallery was founded by Koman Suteja in 1998 and its mission is to showcase the richness of Indonesian art with a focus on emerging and established Balinese painters.
Koman Suteja and his wife Mansri Trisniawati started this ‘Living in Gallery’ after the Covid-19 lockdown that restricted the gallery from opening to the public. It affected the artists as well because it halted their exhibition plans. Because the Gallery had to close, Koman says it “brought back memories to the original ideas of the space in the gallery and why it was created. Why don’t we invite the artists to use the Gallery?”
‘Living in Galery’ program invites artists to ‘reside’ and create in the Gallery’s second floor, which is 200m2 wide. The artist is allowed a total of 24 hours to work, which can be split into different days. Because each artist has different styles and processes, they are able to customize the space to look like their studio, play the music they want and have the gallery open or closed to the public.
Each artist was briefed beforehand so they came to the Gallery with a set of ideas specifically, which excited the artists because the lockdown halted a lot of their projects and exhibitions. The artists responded well to the initiative as it gave them a good challenge that pushed them to do something different during this pandemic.
After the artist’s ‘residency’ at the Gallery, the paintings are displayed in the gallery space. Once a month Koman’s wife Mansri arranges ‘The Artist Lunch’ which allows art lovers, connoisseurs and collectors to come together to the Gallery, admire the art, talk to the artist personally and have lunch together at Komaneka Rasa Sayang.
Each ‘Living in Gallery’ session will utilize the technology and showcase the gallery digitally. The Gallery website will be updated with new paintings every month and the process will be recorded live on social media.
The purpose of this program is close to Koman’s heart. “I was born in a family who are very close to art and the center of the Indonesian art movement. It started from my grandparents, I Wayan Neka, who was a sculptor and my father, Wayan Suteja Neka, who was the patron of modern art in Indonesia.
My father invited a lot of Indonesian master artists to live in Ubud, rent them a house and work closely together with my father Wayan Suteja Neka. I met all of the master Indonesian artists which is a special opportunity. With this program, I want to share the experience of working closely with artists of my generation.”

Legian Village currently cover the same (geographical) area, consisting of 3 banjars. In the traditional village “wewengkon”, the three banjars are the SukaDuka Banjar Legian Kaja, Legian Tengah (Pekandelan) and Legian Kelod.
Bordered by the Seminyak Village area in the north and Kuta Village in the south, this area is adjacent to the river (Tukad Mati) and rice fields. Legian Village is known as a tourism area which is equipped with many tourism facilities including entertainment centers. In addition, Legian Village also has a very beautiful beach which is the main tourist destination for tourists.
Based on history, Legian village began with the discovery of a Otaheite gooseberry that tastes sweet. This is unusual because Otaheite gooseberry generally have a sour taste. Since then, the village area is called Karang Kemanisan.
The name Karang Kemanisan is known from the utterances of the "sadeg patih" (humans who are used as mediators for Ida Bhatara) who are trance when religious ceremonies are carried out at the Legian Village temple. They often say "Damuh Karang Kemanisan".
The name Karang Kemanisan also contains the philosophy of future generations who occupy the place to always maintain harmony in attitude and behavior and maintain the beauty of nature and its environment. So that they can be blessed with prosperity and well-being. Over time the name Karang Kemanisan was changed to Legian. The word legian comes from the root word "legi" which also means sweet. In the Old Javanese language, legi also means sweet.
The Taksu Murti Kemanisan Art Studio in Legian then performed artistic performances including the composition of the Legian Manis Bebarongan Tabuh, the Rerejangan Upasaksi Dance, the Tri Taksu Creation Dance and the Telek Dance according to the characteristics of the Legian Traditional Village. This dance was even performed at the 41st Bali Arts Festival (PKB).
Now Legian Village continues to improve. Apart from being a fisherman, most Legian residents make a living from the tourism sector. Like working in a hotel or opening an art shop. The area around Legian is also well organized so that it makes tourists who want to visit comfortable.
Desa Les is a seaside village of 8,000 on the northeast coast of Bali. A Bali Moela village, it differs from its neighbors in that there is no caste and ceremonies, while still Hindu, are much simpler than in other parts of Bali.
Les is an agricultural village where mangoes, coconuts, and rambutan flourish, and the sea of course provides a bounty of fish and salt. The Yeh Mampeh waterfall provides the precious water needed by people in Les, but it is not enough to cover daily needs and irrigation.
Due to its location being north of the mountains ergo little rainfall comes
here, the soil can be quite dry. Many of the men (pre pandemic) went down south to work in the construction industry, and several of the young people went to work on cruiseships.
The majority of the people here live day to day, in simple houses with not too many amenities. The education level reached by many is only at the Junior High (SMP) level.
In spite of all this, it is a wonderful place to visit. There is a boardwalk by the sea where one can walk past the working salt farms and see the colorful boats of the fishermen and the underwater life is still stunning. +
Located on Ubud’s bustling Main Road (Jalan Raya), between Ubud Palace and Museum Puri Lukisan, Cafe Lotus has been an institution ever since it opened its doors in 1983. The atmosphere of the town may have undergone changes but the tradition of Balinese hospitality has been maintained.
Over the past 37 years the restaurant has been welcoming guests from all over the world; some have been visiting us on a regular basis, even several times during their stays. It is a custom we appreciate and it represents a continuous challenge for us..
The setting of Cafe Lotus is unique – even by Balinese standards: a large Lotus pond framed by ancient lowering kamboja (magnolia) trees and, our most recent addition, an exhibit of several dozens of blooming orchid plants. One of Ubud’s main temple complexes, Pura Taman Kemuda Saraswati, completes the scenery; the ambience is simply magical – especially during twilight hours and in the evenings.
Cafe Lotus has become on of Ubud’s landmarks, an oasis in a busy environment and even more so a centre of Balinese of culture. The restaurant comes highly recommended by guidebooks worldwide and it deserves to be included on your next visit to Bali. Contrary information in some guide books we are a full-service restaurant and not just a nice place “pour rendre un verre” (to have a drink); while we certainly welcome all, preferential seating is reserved for dinner guests after 6.30pm.
We are looking forward to welcoming you at Cafe Lotus when your travels bring you to Ubud. +

"Back in 2004 Muntigunung was one of the poorest areas in Bali. It was rather inhospitable – simple bamboo huts dotted a dry, brown landscape that had nothing in common with the lush, tropical, touristy South of Bali. Families had no access to water and had to walk for an average of four hours just to fetch water. There were hardly any employment opportunities and the intense long dry season prevented the cultivation of agricultural produce for most of the year. This forced many women and children of Muntigunung to beg in the tourist areas in the south of the island to ensure their survival. As many people in the community relied on income from begging, they used their children as “emotional sales support” with the consequence that these children didn’t attend school, resulting in a continuous cycle of illiteracy and poverty.
A Holistic, Sustainable Approach
In 2006, in an effort to provide a more sustainable and brighter future for the Muntigunung community, Future for Children – a Swiss backed NGO, together with Yayasan Dian Desa, initiated the Muntigunung Community Development Program.
By working alongside the community, specially designed roofs were constructed to harvest and store rainwater in tanks to provide a year-round water supply. After securing and maintaining clean water for every household, the aim was to support the community in accessing healthcare and education and creating employment and economic opportunities through social enterprises. Over the course of several years, child mortality was reduced from 9% to 0%, sanitary facilities were built by the community and access to public healthcare and education facilitated. Three social enterprises were established to develop the area’s economy: Muntigunung Community Social Enterprise (Food), Muntigunung Community Social Handicrafts Enterprise and Muntigunung Trekking.
Today, the buildings initially built to harvest rainwater not only provide water, but also function as communal spaces for the residents and production centers for the social enterprises to process food products and produce handicrafts."

From Lonely Planet:
Artist Adrien-Jean Le Mayeur de Merpres (1880–1958) arrived in Bali in 1932, and married the beautiful Legong dancer Ni Polok three years later, when she was just 15. They lived in this compound back when Sanur was still a quiet fishing village. After the artist’s death, Ni Polok lived in the house until she died in 1985. Despite security (some of Le Mayeur's paintings have sold for US$150,000) and conservation problems, almost 90 of Le Mayeur's paintings are displayed.
The house is an interesting example of Balinese-style architecture – notice the beautifully carved window shutters that recount the story of Rama and Sita from the Ramayana. The museum has a naturalistic Balinese interior of woven fibres. Some of Le Mayeur’s early works are impressionist paintings from his travels in Africa, India, the Mediterranean and the South Pacific. Paintings from his early period in Bali are romantic depictions of daily life and beautiful Balinese women – often Ni Polok. The works from the 1950s are in much better condition, displaying the vibrant colours that later became popular with young Balinese artists. Look for the haunting black-and-white photos of Ni Polok. +

As a millennial, I am ready to develop my village through the Wikithon Public Participation #5 BASAbali Wiki. Let's look at to my village.
Hello friends, I am Dewa Ayu Manis and these are my friends, Desak Maharani and Yuli Setiawati. I would like to introduce you to the potential of villages in Banjar Pemenang, Nyalian Village, Banjarangkan District, Klungkung Bali.
Friends, don't you know? In Nyalian Village, there are craftspeople who make “capil” hats, which are made from the leaves of a young “demela” coconut tree. The way to make them is a bit complicated, but the price of this capil hat is very low. This business has existed for generations in the village, and no other village makes them.
I will let you know, there are problems felt by these craftspeople. The raw materials are difficult to find and the hats are not well promoted. The hope of the craftspeople is that the price of these capil hats can be increased so that they can help develop them as small-medium enterprises at the provincial level and also make them a village icon.
Hopefully from this video, the government can help in developing villages, especially in fostering the potential of working groups. Hopefully the government can help provide financial assistance or or other support to village development such as promoting this product overseas.
