Sukowati Market in Bali

Holiday Ayo - Sukawati Art Market, referred to locally as 'Pasar Seni Sukawati', is the most distinguished and long-standing art market in Bali.

In this market, the visitors can seek and purchase distinctively Balinese art items such as paintings and sculpted wooden figures, curios, handicrafts, and traditional handmade products.

Prices for Bali holiday cotton shirts vary depending on the motif, weave, and overall quality.

Most of the fine paintings on sale here are generally imitations of the signature styles of various maestros, such as Antonio Blanco, Arie Smit, Bonet, and Han Snel. Even so, there are also some Kamasan style paintings worth looking. Some small-scale A4-size paintings, some framed and some not, make for great easy-to-carry souvenirs.

The two-storey Sukawati Art Market was established in the 80s and it is an alternative, inexpensive and complete shopping destination conveniently situated along most tour itineraries to the central and northern regions of the island.

To get a wholesale price and enjoy the fixed prices for each item, visit Pasar Pagi Sukawati (Sukawati Morning Market), a short distance west from the Sukawati Art Market.

Open from 7 am to 11 pm, it also sells handicrafts similar to Sukawati Art Market.

How to Get There
Sukawati Art Market is located on the Jalan Raya Sukawati main road in Gianyar, approximately 20km northeast of the main tourism hubs of Kuta and Denpasar.
