Riding bicycles around the paddy fields of Ubud was a fun experience. This was taken near the Alila Ubud property. There are many temples like this one around Ubud. Ubud is a very special place and one that should not be missed when traveling to Bali. Be safe when riding in the area as the traffic is quite crazy.
