30 JUN 2011 THUR - BALI - 4. Tegalalang Rice Terrace (Ubud)

Tegalalang village is located on the north-south road from Kintamani and Ubud. Tegallalang Village rice terraces has beautiful view with coconut trees and beautiful small river valley.

Tegalalang village is famous for rice terrace, but now on the way to tegalalang village, on both side of the road you will find many shops selling woodcarvings. The first example of Balinese landscape is the rice-field. This is a typical scene in Bali. The terraced rice-field is typical of the beauty of the Balinese countryside.
Note the harmony of colors, the vivid green of the coconut groves and the pale blue of the sky. Wet rice agriculture (sawah) is the basic and most important activity of Balinese life; Rice is the major crop and the staple food.
