Jatiluwih rice terraces
Bali’s most beautiful rice fields and terraces are said to be in Penebel village in Tabaman, a UNESCO cultural landscape. The Jatiluwih rice paddies are notable for using traditional Balinese irrigation techniques.

If you’re lucky, you’ll witness farmers separating the rice from the stalks. Mount Batukaru looming in the distance makes the fields particular
picturesque.
This
is also the area to make a stop at a roadside stand and try some exotic
fruits.

I love mangosteen, they were not in season when I was there for a long stay. I also didn't get to see this Unesco site since it was being reworked for its irrigation system.
ReplyDeleteAmazing work terracing those rice paddys, and wow, two fruits I have never seen before!
ReplyDeleteI tasted Rambutan in Mexico and love the fruit!
ReplyDeleteI've never tried any of the exotic fruits before. They must be tasty!
