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

A beautiful museum in itself. It provides detailed information about Bali and its history in a small space. However, it is quite hot despite the air conditioning.

This may be helpful elsewhere, but not here! Every...

I was just here to accompany my son's excursion with his classmate. I didn't go inside to see the museum. But I looked around public areas and was very impressed to see how clean it is. Please keep up the good work!

It is a good museum but only got four stars because it's not a great museum. The big draw is the architecture of the buildings, as the displays in the four buildings are actually quite minimal. I'm glad I went and would recommend going, but it is not extensive.

Bali museum is 100,000 Rupiah for adults.

He charged us 40 000 rupiah for the clothing then another 100,000 to hear his basic knowledge of his own religion. This is a scam , avoid them and tell them no . If they heckle you just walk...
