Java's cultural heart has great atmosphere. From the sprawling palace to the bird markets, batik workshops and the extraordinary Hindu and Buddhist temples nearby, 'Yogya' is one of the most appealing cities in Asia.

With artists, woodworkers and silversmiths workshops lining the town's streets, Ubud is an art-lover's dream. End the adventure with an energetic kecak dance performance, where dancers are whipped into a trance-like frenzy.
