When to go to Bali (Ubud/Denpasar)?
Tegallalang's rice terraces are so improbably tidy that you start checking whether someone forgot to switch a filter off. At Tanah Lot, the temple on its rock holds firm against the waves and against the flip-flopped crowd queuing for the identical shot everyone else already has. Ubud's craft market lines up hand-carved statues beside hastily embroidered T-shirts, while Mount Batur waits to sell you a sunrise in exchange for sweat and very strong coffee.
