When people think of Bali, the first thing that comes to mind is sandy beaches and surfing; but there are still a lot of places that will impress you. For example, endless, emerald-green rice terraces will make you take a lot of photos. Around Ubud, you’ll find about 25 stunning terraces; each one shows you a living masterpiece of traditional farming. Want to explore them all?

What Makes Rice Terraces So Special?

Rice terraces aren’t just fields; they’re works of art. Farmers use an ancient subak irrigation system that helps to deliver water evenly. Beyond their practical role in farming, the terraces offer visitors a glimpse into the pure beauty of the island.
