Trip to Jatiluwih in Tabanan Bali

Jatiluwih has been elected to the list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. The reason for this is the sweeping sawah (rice fields). and today I rode around the area taking a few photos.

The quickest way to get to Jatiluwih, from Kuta, is to shoot to to head towards Tabanan, taking the road north to Singaraja, when you see the sign. Jatiluwih is really just a mountain village, but the area around it is known by that name. You head up almost as far as Bedugal, looking out for a small sign on the corner of the street. The windy rutted street at first alows a maximum speed of about 10mph, but then gets faster. The great thnig about this route, is that it steps straight of the ‘fast track’ main road, and straight into gorgeous rice fields and a totally different reality.

I will be detailing this trip, as soon as I take care of my wife and child (a lame excuse, but I’m sticking to it).
