Jatiluwih Rice Terraces

Jatiluwih rice terraces are a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Bali, Indonesia. The terraces are known for their magnificent beauty, unique irrigation system, and Balinese culture reflected in the rice fields. These rice terraces are located in the Tabanan Regency and cover an area of around 600 hectares.

The Jatiluwih rice terraces were formed through thousands of years of hard work by the Balinese people, who developed a complex irrigation system to control the water flow through the rice paddies. This intricate system of irrigation and water management has enabled the rice farmers to grow rice crops in the terraced fields for generations.

The Jatiluwih rice terraces are known for their unique beauty, which has earned them the title of being one of the most beautiful rice terraces in Bali. The landscape is shaped by the intricate irrigation system that channels water down the slopes and fields, creating layers of green terraces. The terraces also provide a beautiful backdrop for the daily life of the Balinese people, who have cultivated the fields for generations.
