Tegalalang Rice Terrace Ubud is one of Bali’s most popular attractions. Offering the most stunning sunrise and a real rural experience. Located slightly North of Ubud and sits at 600m above sea level. This makes the air a tad cooler for the rice farmers.

As you drive up towards the entrance you will notice many touristy shops all with handmade goods and souvenirs. There are also heaps of cafes scattered across the main touristy section.

There is one main entrance into Tegalalang rice fields that can be pretty easy to miss, but here you can stroll down the steps and into the terrace. You can reach the other side where it’s a lot quieter.

There are a few swings situated in and around the rice fields as well as the famous ‘Love Bali Sign’
