DENPASAR (indo.com): There are still many villages in Bali which have not been touched by modernization as they are tucked away between valleys and hills surrounded by miles of ricefields in tidy rows and terraces.

The ricefields are carefully tended by the villagers using traditional techniques and simple tools handed down from generation to generation. Today you can still see the farmers tilling their fields with their cows or water buffaloes. Farming is still their only means of survival.

Jatiluwih village, which is located in the north of the Tabanan Regency is one such village. It is said that the village possesses one of the most beautiful natural surroundings on the island. It is situated 850 meters above sea level and so the climate is quite cool and the air very fresh.

Try to visit Jatiluwih around lunchtime and spend some time overlooking this view while you eat in the restaurant there.
