Some of the most spectacular and dramatic rice terraces in Bali, Indonesia are located in the Tegallalang area of central Bali.


One of the most spectacular rice field terraces is Tegallalang area, just about 15 minutes drive outside of Ubud. Surrounding gorge full of rice fields has over the years attracted many photographers who captured its images on film and photos. Overtime Tegallalang rice fields became an attraction in itself. Even though a lot of rice fields surrounding Ubud have been converted, terrace rice fields still remain the most popular feature of Bali landscapes. Most of them have been created around 9th century and engineered by the Balinese themselves using water coming from the mountains. The result are step, garden like terraces designed on hillsides and mountain edges with irrigation channels that keep them wet all year round.
