Ubud Palace in Bali Indonesia 🇮🇩

#indonesiatrip When you travel to Bali, make sure to visit Ubud Palace in Ubud. The sculpture art here is truly unique, with various sculptures that are both peculiar and adorable. 🏰🎨 The palace's history dates back to the fall of the Majapahit kingdom on Java Island in the 15th century. Javanese nobles then migrated to Bali and established the Gelgel Kingdom in the southeast of Bali, specifically in the Klungkung district. By the 17th century, the Gelgel Kingdom expanded its influence, leading to the establishment of the Sukawati Palace in other parts of Bali. The Gelgel Kingdom dispatched their prince to Sukawati, where a royal palace of remarkable architectural beauty was constructed in the Gianyar region, where Ubud is situated. Many Balinese artists were involved in the construction of the Sukawati Palace, contributing to the artistic flair seen in Ubud Palace today. Following the completion of the Sukawati Palace, numerous artists opted to remain in Sukawati, transforming the region into Bali's artistic hub. 🎭🎨
