Sanur Beach has a lengthy shoreline (about 7 kilometers) with a paved footpath that runs the length of it, making it ideal for an early morning walk, jog, or bike ride. Which is exactly what I did when i took these photos during my walk.

It’s a beautiful course flanked by fishing boats, hotel gardens, and beach eateries, with views of Mount Agung volcano in the background on occasion.

Although it was shrouded in heavy mist during my visit, so I really didn’t get to see it at all. But as you will see from my photos the weather at the beach was stunning with a beautiful cool breeze, and lots of lovely small cafes and restaurants to stop and refresh at along the way.

Whilst in Ubud, I had planned beforehand to visit the Masks and Puppets Museum, always being fascinated by puppets as a child and into my adulthood, you can image the thrill and pleasure I got from this visit!

EXHIBITIONS SPACES
The collections of the House of Masks and Puppets are housed in four different traditional Javanese antique houses or commonly known as Joglo. These unique Joglos are mostly originated from East and Middle Java. They are made out of good quality teak wood and have been put up to help keep their preservation.
All the exhibits are displayed and curated in English as well as Balinese.

The collection of the House of Masks and Puppets currently consists of approximately 7000 items, of which 1300 are masks from Indonesia, Africa, and Japan; whilst the other 5700 are puppets from Indonesia, China, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, and Cambodia. Although the House of Masks and Puppets has several objects from other countries, the collection mostly consists of items from various regions in Indonesia. The acquisition of various masks and puppets from other countries is intended for additional learning, appreciation, and understanding of other cultures.

I have split the collection as in their displays in four houses. From full human sized costumes and masks, to face only masks, to shadow and screen puppets and finally wooden puppets!

I hope you enjoy the collection.

Whilst at the GWK Park I was able to attend a performance of Balinese dance. In three main chapters, this is no.3 of the three. I considered them to long to put together for YouTube purposes. I hope you enjoy.

Below is some information about Balinese dancing;

Balinese dance is a variety of dances originating from the island of Bali.
Balinese dance does not always depend on the storyline. The main goal of Balinese dancers is to dance each stage of movement and sequence with full expression. The beauty of Balinese dance can be seen in the abstract and beautiful movements. The most famous Balinese dances include Pendet, Gambuh, Baris, Sanghyang and Legong.

Balinese dances are mostly religious in meaning. Since the 1950s, with the rapid development of tourism, several dances have been performed at activities outside of religious events with some modifications.

Balinese dance is one of the attractions of tourists to come to this island of the gods. In this video, the Balinese dance in GWK shows a dance that we took pictures of at a tourist spot known as Garuda Wisnu Kencana or GWK.
