Ubud History
The name of Ubud is derived from the word ubad, meaning medicine, and refers
to the myriad variety of healing plants found along this riverside and in the
surrounding environs. In the beginning Ubud itself was originally a small portion
of land centred around Campuhan (meaning ‘rivers meeting’) and the
pura (temple) Gunung Lebah. Yet Ubud, as it is known in the 21st century, spans
many villages and is a kecamatan (district), and kelurahan (sub-district), as
well as desa (village).
