Rice Fields

TIME : 2016/2/17 12:36:04

At Jatiluwih, which means ‘Truly Marvellous’, you'll be rewarded with vistas of centuries-old rice terraces that exhaust your ability to describe green. The terraces have received Unesco World Heritage status, listed in recognition of the ancient rice-growing culture. You’ll understand why just by viewing the panorama from the narrow, twisting 18km road leading in and out of town, but do get out for a rice-field walk. Follow the water as it runs through channels and bamboo pipes from one plot to the next.

There’s a road toll for visitors.
