Ubud, Bali’s spiritual centre, has been awarded another honour.
Ubud was included among the 15 Best Cities in the World to Visit by TRAVEL+LEISURE.
I’m not sure that Ubud is a city, but that’s ok!
Ubud ranked 9th with a score of 88.16 between Luang Prabang in Laos and Istanbul in Turkey. They were 8th and 10th.
The survey for the World’s Best Awards ended in early March 2020 right before the COVID-19 pandemic. ‘The results reflect our readers’ experiences before the pandemic, but we hope this year’s honorees will inspire your trips to come – whenever they may be,’ they wrote.
Mexican city Oaxaca was top. San Miguel de Allende, also in Mexico, and Hoi An in Vietnam were 2nd and 3rd.
Ubud was also mentioned in TRAVEL+LEISURE’s Top 15 Cities lists in 2017 and 2018.
