Many of Ubud's trainings can be found at luxury venues in the open space solitude of the paddy fields or perched in the treetops of the forest in the river valley.

The area has always been well known for it's cultural festivities such as Balinese dancing, and traditional hand crafts. You can feel the connection of the people and place to spirit here. 

Dotted all around you will see shrines and temples adorning the landscape, even elaborate natural rock cut shrines.

You'll see shrines in the terraced rice fields too, which are probably the most well known image of Bali itself.
