"Bedugul Traditional Market is a fantastic spot to experience local Balinese culture. The piles of exotic fruits and bright flower offerings make for stunning pictures. The energy is high, and the atmosphere is genuinely authentic.
We enjoyed tasting the fresh strawberries and bought some unique spices to take home. The vendors are lively and, while they will call out to you, a simple smile and "no, thank you" is enough.
The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that it can get very crowded and tight in the aisles, which might be overwhelming for some. Also, be mindful of your belongings in the packed crowds.
Photos taken at Galungan holiday, so it’s looks empty.
Overall, it's a highly recommended stop on your Bedugul tour. Just be prepared for the hustle and bustle!"
