Ubud

Ubud, located in the Gianyar Regency of Bali, Indonesia, is a thriving hub known for its arts, culture, and increasingly, its digital nomad community. While not a city with official status, Ubud functions as the central area of the Ubud District and is a key part of the larger Sarbagita metropolitan region. With a population around 75,000, it’s a relatively compact area offering a blend of traditional Balinese life and modern amenities.

Ubud’s appeal lies in its unique atmosphere – a calming contrast to the busier southern areas like Denpasar. Surrounded by lush rice paddies, farms, and a growing number of co-working spaces and cafes, it attracts those seeking a balanced lifestyle. Over three million international visitors come to Ubud annually, drawn to its creative energy, wellness offerings, and authentic Balinese experiences.
