After much of a fun time at Taman Ujung, Karangasem we were preparing ourselves for the next itinerary and we wouldn't be pedalling to the next place. |
Our Brompton will be loaded into these small delivery pick-ups while we will travel on the coaches. |
It has many pools, fountains, gardens and statues. Tirta Gangga literally means "water from the the Ganges" |
The place has gone through a series of restoration works due the the destructive hot showers of volcanic ash from the 1963 Mount Agung eruption. |
Half the figures are looking very evil and the half are pleasant statues to balance up. |
That's why a "yin and yang" sign is found on the floor to represents the contrasting figures found in this amazing place. |
This plant is unique with a trunk of a banana tree and leaves of a non-banana tree. |
Our tour guide at Tirta Gangga standing next to a statue that looks like him. He loved my remark of this similarity and he felt good about it. |
Getting closer to a traditional Balinese fishing boat in one of the pools.
The coaches continued ferrying us to Kabupaten Gianyar where famous Ubud Palace is located. We disembarked at a parking bays next to SenS Hotel & Spa (GPS : -8.509565, 115.269155). |
Over here we unloaded our bicycles and set them up for a final ride back to Sthala Ubud Hotel. |
One more wefie in front of Ubud Palace before we roll back to the hotel. |
While some of us were getting more of the Palace of Ubud the rest were patiently waiting and ready to roll again. |
Another short ride of approximately 8km before we reach Sthala Ubud Hotel as we took this bend into Jalan Hanoman in Ubud town. |
Our entrusted Pak Polisi ensuring our safety on this very wet and busy road. |
We encountered a bit of flooded stretch at Jalan AA Gede Rai. Fortunately the rain has stopped and we were able to cycle. It was surely a heavy downpour. |
Along and passing by Jalan Raya Mawang and quite close to the hotel we were able to enjoy the lush paddy field view with the sun setting in the evening. |
Finally we arrived at Sthala, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel and it was 5.20pm. What a lovely day with so many memorable moments piling up for us. |
Taking more photos before we rest ourselves back in our respective comfortable rooms with a farewell dinner lining up for us later in the evening. |
A dinner that marked the end of a wonderful event with great memories for everyone of us who have came to Bali. |
The winners for the most well dressed participant and best dancer on stage to receive their prizes. And they were none other than Anne Cheong and Edmund Foo from Malaysia. |

The palaces are magnificent. Not only is there such beauty, there is the history that adds to their attractiveness. The landscape seems magical and what a great place to visit.
