Wondering where to buy souvenirs from your Bali trip? A father in his 40s has personally visited every market and shopping mall in Bali with his family and recommends the top three spots. Don't waste time and find a special Bali gift to bring back to Korea!
Where to Buy Souvenirs in Bali
Bali, Indonesia ‘A place called 'Island of the Gods'It is a place loved by tourists from all over the world for its beautiful natural scenery and unique atmosphere of the entire island.
Ubud Palace, which preserves Bali's culture and traditions
Because the entire island is a tourist destination, Bali is a country where you can purchase special Bali-related tourist products almost anywhere. If you're looking to buy souvenirs after your Bali trip, where should you go?
This question brings to mind three places. I'll introduce their locations, prices, and what you might want to buy.
Seminyak Bintang Market
The first place I would like to recommend is located in Seminyak. Bintan SupermarketHere it is. There is another Bintang Market in the Hayam Wuruk area, but the Bintang Market in Seminyak is larger and more centrally located, making it much easier to get to.
Bintang Market, a must-visit for countless travelers visiting Bali

Seminyak Bintang Market Review
Bali's Bintang Market is well known and famous, but since you can't know the specific pros and cons without going there yourself, I'll introduce the pros and cons of Bintang Market Seminyak branch, as well as my review, based on my own experience.
Contrary to expectations, the interior is very large and stylishly decorated.
The price is cheap
I lived in Bali for a month and visited most of the markets and shopping malls from Nusa Dua to Tegalalang in Ubud, and the prices were so cheap that I wondered, "Can you find a cheaper place than here?".
Really cheap souvenirs and traditional crafts
True to its name, Bintang beer prices are lower than those of any other local market. I also buy a lot of souvenirs for friends after my Bali trip, and even these are cheaper than bargaining at any other market.
Instead of wandering around multiple markets and wasting energy haggling over souvenirs, I think buying them at Bintang Market is the most reasonable and wisest option. The variety of souvenirs is also great.
Of course, it's not just about souvenirs, it's also a two-story store with coffee, daily necessities, honey, key rings, wooden dolls, fruits, and vegetables, so the items are too numerous to mention.
As it is Bali's representative market, it is also large in scale.
Easy accessibility
Seminyak, where Bintang Market is located, is the center of Bali and is a place where many tourists visit every year due to its concentration of luxurious shops, hotels, and resorts.
So, before going to Ngurah Rai Airport, it is very convenient to stop by the nearby Seminyak Bintang Market to buy souvenirs.
Traditional honey, one of the most famous souvenirs from Bali
The road in front of Bintang Market is a two-lane road that goes both ways. A place where traffic congestion occurs frequently because it is very narrow compared to the number of vehicles.So, it's good to always be aware of this advantage. (It's not something to worry about too much, as it doesn't feel like it's being pushed around in Korea.)
Ubud Art Market
This is a representative traditional market in Ubud. Located in the heart of Ubud, across from the Ubud Royal Palace, it's a popular destination for tourists visiting the palace.
When I visited Ubud Market on my honeymoon in 2010, it was just a typical traditional market, but in the meantime, the market burned down and was rebuilt into its current magnificent appearance.
There are no windows or doors, so you'll have to be prepared for the heat when you visit.
The Ubud Art Market, reborn as a massive building resembling a grand palace, may seem unfamiliar, but it nonetheless attracts a huge number of tourists. (The Ubud Market I visited on my honeymoon wasn't like this.)
Ubud Art Market Reviews
Various souvenirs
A place that sells all the souvenirs and items you can think of from BaliHere, you'll find everything from fans and silverware to wooden dolls, handkerchiefs, wood carvings, bowls, and bracelets. The entire second floor of the two massive buildings is dedicated to souvenir shopping.
The fun of bargaining
Since there are no set prices, you can negotiate prices. If you are good at bargaining, I recommend visiting the Ubud Art Market.
So if you are someone who doesn't like to haggle over prices and just pays what is quoted, A place where you can buy at a higher price than usualThat's it.
Traditional Balinese handicrafts
Traditional market across the street
Across from the massive Ubud Art Market, there's an alleyway that still retains the atmosphere of the old Ubud Market. Naturally, tourists tend to flock to the market inside the large building, making for a very leisurely shopping experience.
Since there are relatively few floating populations and fewer tourists, you can buy souvenirs and other items at cheaper prices if you are good at bargaining.

✅ Things to keep in mind when visiting the Ubud Art Market
First, the bathroom is very dirty.
Because it's such a popular tourist destination, it's so dirty that Koreans often avoid using it. The poorly maintained restrooms are prone to foul odors and filth, making them unusable.
Be sure to use the hotel bathroom before your visit. (My wife went in to use it but just came out😱)
Second, it's very hot.
The Ubud Art Market is housed in a massive building, restored to its original traditional appearance, but it's completely open, with no doors. It's practically like being outdoors in the shade (though you'll sweat profusely even inside).
However, since there are so many people crowded together, you can see that even if you turn on the ceiling fan, you will sweat a lot.
It is a huge building with an incredibly high ceiling.
Nusa Dua Bali Collection
Located a five-minute drive from Nusa Dua Beach, Bali Collection is a shopping paradise. Bali Collection is the place where you can find everything from traditional crafts to expensive products and luxury goods.no see.
Bali Collection is a shopping complex with a very luxurious atmosphere. Although it does not have tall buildings or fancy decorations, it has a more luxurious feel than the typical Bali. A well-organized European village-like atmosphereis a place with .
The interior is very spacious and quiet, so it's a great place to visit for a walk.
Various products
Here you can find everything from very inexpensive keychains and toys to luxurious sculptures, paintings and handicrafts. Where to buy a variety of productsThis is also true.
The range of choices is so wide that even if you don't buy anything in particular, just walking around the Bali Collection can be a very enjoyable trip.
It's expensive
Overall, things are more expensive than typical Balinese prices. Not only things, but even the food at the numerous restaurants can feel expensive.
Bali Collection is Rather than coming to buy, it is enough to visit with the feeling of looking at how it is decorated and what kind of items are available.I did (I felt like a lot of Westerners came)
The interior of the Bali Collection is quite well organized.
Honest reviews of shopping malls and markets
Bali boasts a wide variety of shopping malls. Whether you're looking at Discovery Mall, Mall Bali Galleria, Sidewalk, Beachwalk, or Seminyak Square, you'll find that they all offer similar shopping experiences.
The only difference is the presence or absence of certain stores, but the three shopping malls and markets mentioned above have a significant difference from the other shopping malls mentioned above, and they have their own unique and distinctive charm.
Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, what travelers remember is what makes a place special, right?

Ubud, Bali (UBUD)
Ubud in Bali, in my opinion, is the best place to live. It's steeped in Balinese tradition and culture, yet also offers all the amenities tourists need for a comfortable stay.
Among them, in the Ubud area of Bali, Famous as a representative tourist destinationone Monkey ForestThere is a place that everyone who comes to Bali wants to experience at least once: Monkey Forest.
5 Reasons You Should Never Go to Monkey Forest
If I were to ask this author, who is on his third trip to Bali, to pick his least favorite tourist attraction, it would be the Monkey Forest.
Here are five reasons why I don't like Monkey Forest and why I believe it's a must-visit tourist destination.
Entrance to Ubud's Monkey Forest
1. The danger of wild monkeys
This happened during my second business trip to Bali in 2018.
My job was as a production producer, so I was filming with the crew in Monkey Forest. A wild monkey tried to snatch the bag from a female cast member who was sitting still, but failed and bit her shoulder.
To protect the performer, the wild monkey was chased away, but the performer was injured in the shoulder and was surrounded by people. The Monkey Forest managers stopped me from chasing wild monkeys rather than injuring tourists.I did it.
Our performer was injured, but, Monkey Forest officials do not take any responsibility for the performer's injuries.
Wild monkeys in Monkey Forest
There are staff members at various locations in Monkey Forest to manage the wild monkeys. However, they are only responsible for the safety and facilities of the wild monkeys., It seemed like they had no intention of protecting tourists.
No matter how small, cute and amazing it is They are just wild monkeys after allYes, because they can turn into beasts at any time. Therefore, there's no reason to risk going to Monkey Forest.
2. Lost items
In front of the tourist entrance to Monkey Forest, there is a sign explaining several things to keep in mind in Monkey Forest. The warning is only for tourists. cautionno see.
Monkey Forest strongly warns visitors.
Don't panic
Don't run
Don't look a wild monkey in the eye.
Don't hide any food
Do not bring any kind of plastic or paper bags.
Never touch, catch, or disturb wild monkeys.
Do not give peanuts, cookies, candy, bread, any kind of sweets or any kind of snacks to wild monkeys.
Take good care of your child
While touring the Monkey Forest, you'll often witness wild monkeys actually opening tourists' bags and stealing their belongings. Their forelimbs are similar to those of humans, allowing them to do just about anything.
It is also common for water bottles or drinks to be snatched from your hands, or for sunglasses or small bags to be taken away.
A wild monkey sniffing tourists' hairpins
At the moment when things are stolen Even if the manager is there, it is absolutely wrong to expect them to take it back.If he witnessed the theft, there was nothing he could do but chase the wild monkey.
If you were to ask, "Should I risk meeting wild monkeys in the Monkey Forest and risk having my belongings (including those in my bag) stolen?", I would say, "Absolutely not.".
3. Difference in tourist admission fees
crowded with people Monkey Forest is mostly visited by foreign tourists.Except for the monkey forest rangers or zookeepers, it is difficult to find any Balinese or Indonesian people.
So maybe that's why the admission fees also vary greatly.
Balinese : 50,000 rupiah
Indonesian : 80,000 rupiah
Other foreigners : 100,000 rupiah
Appearance of Monkey Forest ticket booth
It is easy to see differences in admission fees depending on the tourist's origin at famous tourist sites or historical sites in any country, and I know that even some tourist sites in our country have such differences.
However, I felt a bit uneasy right from the ticket booth. I entered Monkey Forest, filled with doubts about whether this price difference was really necessary.
4. Monkeys you can see without paying an admission fee
Wild monkeys can easily be seen strutting along the paths surrounding Monkey Forest. I'd like to tell visitors entering the park that simply seeing the monkeys from outside is enough to satisfy their spirits.
The road leading to Monkey Forest is lined with shops selling tourist goods and clothing. The area is also crowded with people, and the wild monkeys that frequently appear in front of the forest are a particularly interesting sight for tourists.
Wild monkey cubs and groups
Now that I think about it, I wonder, “Why did I go into Monkey Forest?”.
If you want to see wild monkeys living in Ubud, Entrance fee: 100,000 rupeesI wish I knew that you can see wild monkeys roaming the streets nearby without paying a fee.
It's much more economical and efficient to sit outside in front of it and watch from afar. (A better way is to watch the monkey videos I made while walking around Monkey Forest myself.)
Most people who travel to Bali usually stay for a couple of months at most, or just a few weeks or days. However, Monkey Forest is located in Bali. There is so much to see and do in Ubud.There are more than one or two.
Spending time in the Monkey Forest and risking the unpredictable and dangerous behavior of wild monkeys is worth much more than that. Giving up on more exciting experiencesBecause it is excessive.
If you still want to go to Monkey Forest despite all the reasons above, you must be a true animal lover. Or animal loverIsn't it?
That's right. In fact, to be honest, I eat the bananas that the zookeepers throw at me in the monkey forest. It is a very interesting sight to see wild monkeys.no see.
A baby monkey suckling from its mother's breast
And there is no need to mention the baby monkeys who peek out their faces after hiding in their mothers' arms. However, the author visited the Monkey Forest and heard I just wrote down my honest feelings.
Nevertheless, there are clear differences in each person's travel style and values, so we can't stop you from making the journey to Monkey Forest. We only hope you enjoy a safe and enjoyable visit to Monkey Forest.
