Sanur Heritage Walk & Le Mayeur Museum
Sanur has a richer history than most visitors realise — it was the site of the Dutch colonial landing in 1906, the home of Belgium's most celebrated Impressionist painter, and a centre of Balinese scholarship that attracted anthropologists, artists, and writers throughout the 20th century. With Kadek as your guide, walk the heritage lane behind the promenade, visit the Le Mayeur Museum (the artist's home-studio, preserved exactly as he left it), see the historic inscribed pillar that predates the Dutch arrival by a thousand years, and hear the stories of the Balinese community that shaped this remarkable village.
