A solo visitor can linger in each gallery, use the free audio-guide app, sketch in shaded courtyards and read English labels without distraction; public buses and cheap taxis reach the museum easily.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for solo trip: A solo traveler can visit all four pavilions at a relaxed pace

Really good place to visit if you are really interested in learning about other countries culture. Not much commercial activities, peacefully you can learn about Balinese culture
