The urban atmosphere of Denpasar, Bali’s bustling capital city and business and administrativehub, contrasts sharply with the serene Hindu temples, green terraced rice fields and superbsandy beaches nearby. Denpasar is a cosmopolitan, modern city that has grown rapidly in thepast three decades and in many ways it has more in common with other Indonesian regionalcapitals than with its island hinterland. Nevertheless, it is worth a visit, even if you prefer to stayin one of the resort areas nearby rather than in the city itself.

THE ISLAND

Photo: Toby Oxborrow

Located on the south coast of Bali, Denpasar is the regional capital and the main gateway to Indonesia’s mostpopular holiday island. The city is a main business andadministrative centre, and is home to a mixed populationof Balinese, Javanese and other immigrants fromelsewhere in the archipelago. Most visitors head for theneighbouring resort areas of Kuta, Sanur and Nusa Duawhere most of the island’s hotels, restaurants, shoppingfacilities and nightlife are located.

Jalan Gajah Mada is the city’s main thoroughfare, running east to west, and is usually jam-packed with trac.Puputan Square is the hub of downtown Denpasar, withlawns and greenery, and is dominated by the elaborateGovernor’s Residence, the Bali Museum, and a monumentdedicated to the royalty of Bali who were gunned down byDutch ries here in 1906.

Kuta, Bali’s rst and largest resort, lies a few kilometres southwest of the capital, and has spread from its originalcore for almost 20 kilometres along the coast, mergingwith neighbouring Legian. It has a number of upscalehotels, but is mainly popular with budget and mid-rangetravellers. Its main attraction is its superb beach, which isfamed for its surf, but Kuta also has a huge choice ofrestaurants, bars, colourful shops, nightlife and places tostay.

Sanur, east of Denpasar on the south coast, is a more

recent development and is less raucous and a little moreup-market than Kuta. It has fewer late-night bars andbudget guesthouses and more mid-range resort hotels,but, like Kuta, it has superb beaches.

The Nusa Dua peninsula, which dangles from the south coast, is the epicentre of a planned resort area, with aselection of large, self-contained luxury resort hotels. Northof Denpasar (less than an hour’s drive from the airport)amid green valleys and rice elds, the hill resort of Ubudhas excellent shopping, some of the world’s nestboutique hotels, and a slightly cooler climate than thecapital and its satellite resorts.

Cruise ships, excursion boats and some inter-island ferriesleave from Tanjung Benoa, south of Denpasar on the NusaDua isthmus.
