The importance of rice in Bali

One place you can not miss on your visit to Bali, is the rice terraces. Across the island, we can see how the Balinese cultivate rice on terraces or balconies that go downhill, forming a green carpet in contrast with the blue of the sky. Over a thousand years ago the Balinese used this method to make terraces to plant their rice, and these terraces are called the steps that lead to the gods, since rice is very important part of liffe and religious traditions. Planting rice is followed by a ritual and there is also a special day to plant seedlings, and harvest. This ritual is offered to the gods to protect the harvest.

Throughout the year, in Bali you can see these terraces, and there is no specific time because they usually get 2 or 3 crops of rice.The most important and also the most visited by tourists who come to the island, are the terraces of Jatiluwh, The terraces are located 1 hour from Denpasar, since the distance is about 50 km and are located in North Tabanan city about 700 meters above sea level.
