It the main road as you head north from Ubud towards Kintamani.
The shops are on either side of the side along about a 5 km strip.
We have usually driven to the northern end and walk back downhill with the driver collecting our purchases,
Its a mainly wholesale area, so some items are for order only, but many shops sell at wholesale prices, no bargaining required.
You can buy jewellery, mirrors, basins, paintings, furniture, metal animals, wooden statues, oils, burners, soaps, flags and lots more. Lots of items are made in the shop or to the rear.
Not much clothing or footwear, no dvds.
Its also mostly not seen elsewhere eg down in Kuta area.
