Balinese rice field tourism


A stroll in the rice fields is one of the things a visitor to Bali has always needed to do. They can be very picturesque indeed. Ubud especially, is surrounded by scenic rice field walks, though we found that some, like the Campuhan Ridge walk, have become rather too popular for comfort. The paving over of the previous dirt path detracted a bit too, I thought.

Some of the rice field locations have reached tourism superstar status. The Jatiluwih rice terraces, for example, are considered a must-see stop on day tours between Ubud and northern Bali. They're also among the iconic destinations the Obama family visited when here last year.


And it's easy to see why.
