Taman Nusa Cultural Park Tours
There are over 18,000 islands in Indonesia by some counts, and Bali’s Taman Nusa cultural park pays tribute to the nation’s many different ethnic groups. Enjoy over 60 indigenous Indonesian houses and a scale model of Borobudur temple, plus traditional arts, crafts, dance, and music. Restaurants and a theater share the gorge-side setting.
The Basics
A walk through Taman Nusa, which you can explore independently or with a guide, is a journey through both the history and geography of Indonesia. Traditional house designs come from as far afield as Papua, Borneo, and the Maluku “spice islands,” as well as Bali, Java, and Lombok. Artisans demonstrate Indonesia’s rich heritage of weaving, embroidery, batik dying, and puppetry. Choose between a range of packages at different price points: Some include add-ons such as a photo shoot in local costume.
Things to Know Before You Go
How to Get There
Taman Nusa balances atop a jungled gorge in Gianyar, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) east of Ubud and 6 miles (9 kilometers) west of Klungkung (Semarapura). Since there’s no public transport and driving in Bali is dangerous, most travelers arrange a private driver or book a tour that includes door-to-door round-trip transfers.
When to Get There
Taman Nusa operates from morning to afternoon, seven days a week, and the site is never crowded. It can be hot at the exposed site during the middle of the day, so aim to visit in the morning. This is also helpful during Bali’s rainy season (roughly November through March): Downpours are most common in the afternoon.
Indonesian Houses on Bali
Indonesia’s quarter of a billion citizens speak more than 700 different local languages, and the nation’s many different cultural groups have developed a wealth of building styles. Highlights of Taman Nusa’s Indonesian house collection include stilt homes, a multifamily longhouse, a Balinese compound home, and colorfully painted Sulawesi clan houses with soaring, ski-jump roofs.
