Hanging Gardens of Bali Tiered Infinity Pool
Payangan, Indonesia
The tiered infinity pool at Hanging Gardens of Bali is set above the forested Ayung River valley, north of Ubud. Its curved levels follow the hillside, creating a sculptural feature within the surrounding greenery. From the water, the forest canopy becomes the principal view, with the pool edges designed to reduce the visual boundary between the built terrace and the valley beyond. The experience differs from a coastal infinity pool because the outlook is layered with trees, slopes and shifting tropical light. The upper and lower levels create contrasting perspectives on the same landscape, while the surrounding deck offers places to sit between swims. It is a pool designed as a focal point of the resort, distinct from the private pools attached to individual villas. Accommodation is arranged in villas across the hillside, and the wider property includes dining, spa treatments and activities connected to the Ubud area. Visitors planning a pool-focused day should check the resort's current access arrangements before travelling. Allowing time to stay nearby makes it easier to experience the setting at a quieter pace, when the forest rather than the camera determines the rhythm.
