Sanur is often overlooked by visitors who tend to flock to Kuta, Seminyak or Ubud when they visit Bali. Is Sanur worth a visit, and are there things to do in Sanur?

It may not have the surf spots of Kuta or yoga of Ubud, but it does attract a quieter crowd and less tourists. Sanur has a good mixture of everything, we felt comfortable and at home here. There are upscale resorts, spas, a 9-hole golf course, a beach, plenty of great restaurants, plus live music and bars for those who wish to let their hair down.

We have spent quite a bit of time in Sanur, it’s close to the airport making it an ideal place before or after our flight, and for catching a fast boat to the Gilis or Nusa Islands. For scuba divers, it’s the best place to buy equipment, or as a base to dive Padang Bai, Nusa Penida or even Tulumben’s USS Liberty Wreck.

Before you write off a visit, let Feet Do Travel show you some of the things to do in Sanur. You may be surprised and feel that yes, Sanur is worth a visit!

Rooftop bars and sky lounges provide fabulous cityscape views, and a certain ambience. Sipping on a margarita as the sunsets in Siem Reap, Cambodia is the perfect way to end a busy day of temple viewing. But which one do you choose?

I simply adore sunsets. Some early risers prefer sunrise but for me, sitting down at the end of the day with a cold, refreshing drink makes me happy. I always try to seek out the best sunset spots; when we are at a beach I look for beanbags, in a City it’s a rooftop bar.
​
During our recent trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia, I discovered there were quite a few sky lounges, and I found myself wanting to visit as many as I could within the time we had available.
​
If you enjoy City views, people watching from up high, sunsets, cheap beers and cocktails, this is our pick of the best rooftop bars in Siem Reap.

Street Art in Phnom Penh Cambodia? Not the usual place to search for murals but wherever we travel, I always look for Street Art. 

Admittedly to say there is a “Street Art Scene” brimming with insta-worthy Urban Art would be a stretch too far, however there is at least one street where you can find some pretty murals.

Street 93 in the Boeung Kak Area known by many as “Lakeside”, is where you will find a collection of walls painted to brighten up a once derelict area.
​
But for now, until more murals are painted, let me show you what we uncovered when looking for street art in Phnom Penh.

The US can be classified in many different ways, and we feel one of them definitely has to be mind blowing. It offers so much to everyone who visits, and each person can have a different experience depending on what they’re looking for.

There is phenomenal natural beauty, huge wonders, and fantastic history.  Many iconic legends originated in the US such as Elvis Presley, JFK, and Whitney Houston, but we aren’t here to tell you about them, we wish to show you some of the most mind blowing places we think you should visit in the US.
