Paddy fields in Jatiluwih

The Jatiluwih rice terraces, located in the Tabanan Regency of Bali, Indonesia, are indeed among the most famous and picturesque paddy fields in the region. The landscape of Jatiluwih is characterized by expansive rice terraces that cascade down the hillsides of Mount Batukaru and surrounding areas.

What makes Jatiluwih particularly remarkable is not only the stunning natural beauty of the terraced landscape but also the traditional Balinese irrigation system known as subak, which has been practiced here for centuries. This intricate system of canals and water temples allows for efficient water distribution to the rice fields while fostering a sense of community cooperation among local farmers.

The Jatiluwih rice terraces offer visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the tranquility of rural Bali and witness traditional farming practices firsthand. Walking or cycling through the terraces provides stunning views of the lush greenery, with Mount Batukaru towering in the background.

Recognizing the cultural and environmental significance of Jatiluwih, it was designated as a UNESCO Cultural Landscape in 2012. This designation highlights the importance of preserving not only the stunning natural beauty of the landscape but also the traditional agricultural practices and cultural heritage associated with it. As a result, Jatiluwih has become a popular destination for tourists seeking to experience the beauty and authenticity of rural Bali.
