Jatiluwih
The rice terraces are that go for miles in the heart of Bali resemble a miniature grand canyon of green on the island. Jatiluwih, translated from Balinese dialect as 'beautiful teak', is a testimony to agricultural ingenuity with the 'subak' irrigation system and preservation. The local community is discouraged from random and illegal clearing of land for commercial development.

You can take a stroll along the rice feilds and even enjoy a meal overlooking the terraces before journeying down the man made valleys in this serene part of western Bali.
