Jatiluwih Rice Terraces Review

Jatiluwih is a village that has a large rice field area with a beautiful panorama of terraced rice fields located in the Penebel District, Tabanan Regency Bali. Jatiluwih village is famous as a tourist spot with the beauty of terraced rice fields that still use the traditional Balinese rice irrigation system, the location is located close to the Batukaru mountains with fairly cool air conditions. To visit Jatiluwih Bali tourist attraction with beautiful terraced rice fields can be reached by a distance of approximately 50 KM or approximately 1 hour 30 minutes from the city of Denpasar.

Simply breathtaking view of the rice terraces! Visited Jatiluwih twice and never did I once got bored of it!

The Jatiluwi rice terraces, located in the village of the Highlands of the same name in western Bali, are known for their striking and exotic landscapes. The cool heights at the foot of Batukaru Mountain and the stunning scenery of the village offer great photo opportunities and a relaxing place to rest away from the island’s crowded south. Once a UNESCO cultural heritage candidate, Jatiluwi rice terraces cover more than 600 hectares of terrain along the Batukaru Mountains. They are maintained by a traditional water management cooperative called subak, which dates back to the 9th century. The co-operative itself was ultimately considered the decisive factor in the "cultural landscape" of Bali entering the heritage list. The place was breathtakingly beautiful. I visited the De Gralang terraces the day before, but it was much more beautiful here than there. The terraces were vast and endless. It's so vast, so green, so awe-inspiring. Be sure to look at the different rice ears. One of our guides explained that Bali rice (red rice) is harvested only once a year.

The best rice terrace. The view is breathtaking. Almost every meter comes a stopping to rest and take pictures. For me this is a must. The scenery is unreal.

As a UNESCO World Heritage site, this huge rice terrace is worth going. Go get a scooter and rice upward north from Seminyak, will probably take about 40-60min ride. But the landscape is amazing and out of thr touristy congestion of Kuta, Seminyak and Canggu. I love Bali so much and great to see something green.
