ID- Gianyar Regency
- Kabupaten Gianyar
Gianyar Regency is an administrative kabupaten located in the province of Bali, Indonesia. Situated at coordinates -8.5441, 115.3255, it covers an area of 368.0 km2. The regency is bordered by Badung Regency and Denpasar City to the west, Bangli Regency and Klungkung Regency to the east, and the Badung Strait and Indian Ocean to the south. Its administrative seat is the town of Gianyar, which serves as the central hub for regional governance.
The history of the region traces back approximately 2,000 years through archaeological evidence of human settlements. A significant milestone occurred on 19 April 1771, when Ida Dewa Manggis Sakti established Puri Agung Gianyar as a sovereign kingdom. This event marked the birth of an autonomous state that participated in Bali's power struggles. The region later evolved through colonial periods and independence, with the first regent appointed in 1960 following administrative reforms.
The regency is divided into seven districts, including Sukawati, Blahbatuh, Gianyar, Ubud, Tampaksiring, Tegallalang, and Payangan. The town of Ubud is a renowned centre of art and tourism located within these boundaries. Four southern districts form part of the Greater Denpasar metropolitan area, while the northern districts remain distinct. The region features historical sites such as the Pakerisan river cliffs and former royal centres like Singamandawa Palace.
Tourism serves as the mainstay of the local economy, drawing visitors to its artistic heritage and cultural landscapes. The regency is known for its artists who are deeply connected to the land. Notable attractions include Keramas Beach in Blahbatuh, which has hosted international surfing competitions. The area also preserves rich traditions from the Warmadewa dynasty and the Five Balinese Kings, offering a glimpse into Bali's royal past.
According to the mid-2022 census, the population was 523,973. The ethnic composition is predominantly Balinese, accounting for 95.27% of residents as of the 2010 census. The government is led by Regent I Made Agus Mahayastra and Vice Regent Anak Agung Gde Mayun, who have served since 2018. The region's economy relies heavily on tourism, supported by its strategic location in Bali and accessible administrative infrastructure.
