Gianyar is the rich artistic district and has given Bali much of its character as a heart of vision. The specialty of this area is woven kain endek used in customary wear. Beside that, some of the most important archeological sites also exist in Gianyar. The majority is located in the Pejeng area, 4 km from Ubud, known as a home to one of South East Asia's oldest artifacts, a huge kettledrum known as the moon of Pejeng, a relic from the Bronze Age.

The district of Gianyar is the center of Balinese culture, rich in history and artifacts. Gianyar's history is arguably the most fascinating in Bali. The town of Gianyar itself is a small administrative town, home to one of the best preserved palaces on the island, but unfortunately closed to visitors.

The city of art, just a few kilometers from the outskirts of Denpasar, the northern-most point high on the slopes that lead to the caldera of Mount Batur.
This is one of cities that has a high revenue from tourism.
