TABANAN, DEWATA.NEWS – Nuanu Creative City in Beraban Village, Tabanan, is developing a large green public space as a new tourism destination in Bali, combining nature, art, education, recreation, and family-friendly experiences in one integrated area.
The project, called Nuanu Park, is part of the wider Nuanu Creative City development located near Bali’s growing tourism hub of Canggu. The park covers around 1.6 hectares within the broader 4.4-hectare complex.
CEO of Nuanu Creative City, Lev Kroll, said the concept was designed to create a more pedestrian-friendly environment where visitors can relax and gather with family, friends, and pets.
“For several years we have been thinking about this space. We hope this place becomes much more pedestrian-friendly, creating a place where people can gather with children, friends, pets, or simply relax,” Kroll said on Wednesday.
The new tourism area features a variety of supporting facilities, including children’s playgrounds, botanical gardens, a children’s academy, zipline attractions, and art workshop spaces.
Once officially opened during the upcoming summer season, the park is expected to host workshops, outdoor programs, family activities, pet-friendly areas, and community-based events accessible to both tourists and local residents.
According to Kroll, the park is intended to make Nuanu more open and accessible to the public while offering opportunities for exploration, learning, recreation, and social interaction.
“This park is designed to make Nuanu more open and accessible to the public by offering experiences centered on exploration, learning, play, and interaction as a gateway to the creative district,” he explained.
Nuanu also collaborates with local communities to develop creative installations using recycled materials collected from beaches, including wood and tree branches turned into art sculptures.
“There is a team here that has passionately collected wood from beaches, cleaned the coastline, and created extraordinary sculptures and figures from those materials,” Kroll added.
He believes the growing involvement of creative communities could eventually transform the area into a larger hub for arts and cultural activities in Bali.
Kroll said many of Bali’s tourism experiences are currently spread across different regions, such as walking areas in Sanur, cultural attractions in Ubud, Kecak performances in Uluwatu, and dining destinations in Canggu. Through Nuanu Park, the company aims to create a space where visitors can experience multiple aspects of Bali’s creative and cultural identity in one destination.
“One of the challenges we see is that many extraordinary experiences are scattered in different places. Our idea is to create a space where these amazing elements can come together and shine in one location,” he said.
The development reflects the growing trend of integrated lifestyle and community-based tourism projects in Bali, especially in areas surrounding Canggu and Tabanan.
