The main entrance to the Archaeological Museum of Istria (Arheoloski Muzej Istre) is actually one of the original gates that served as an entry point into the old Roman town. The museum carries a fascinating range of archaeological artefacts from prehistoric times to the Middle Ages from the region. You will find architectural highlights on the ground floor, Neolithic and Roman era finds on the first floor, Roman antiquities and medieval period artefacts on the second floor.

Primate's Palace is a gem of Neo-Classical architecture. The original residence of Esztergom Archbishop. It includes a Mirror Hall and a famous collection of 17th century English tapestries depicting the tragic love of Hero and Leander. The palace made history during an important event in 1805: after the battle of Austerlitz, France and Austria signed the "Peace of Pressburg" treaty in the palace.

Tegenungan Waterfall, also called Blangsinga, is about 30 minutes from Ubud and pretty easy to reach. It’s one of the more popular waterfalls in Bali, so don’t expect it to be quiet—but the flow is strong, the jungle backdrop is dense, and you can wade in the pool at the bottom. Go early if you want to avoid the tour groups.

Down on Bali’s southern tip, Uluwatu serves up dramatic cliffs, legendary surf breaks, and some of the island’s best beaches. It’s calmer than Seminyak or Canggu—more about sunsets, sea views, and boutique stays. The Uluwatu Temple is the big draw here, perched on a cliff edge with nightly Kecak dance shows at sunset.
