Emerald Steps & Morning Magic: Tegalalang Rice Terrace

#balionbudget Tegalalang Rice Terrace was a breathtaking escape into Bali’s lush heart. Just 20 minutes from Ubud, the layered green paddies curved gracefully along the hillside, creating a mesmerizing landscape. We arrived early to catch the golden sunrise—soft light, cool air, and peaceful paths before the crowds. Walking the narrow trails between terraces felt like stepping into a living painting. Farmers worked quietly, and the traditional subak irrigation system added cultural depth. While swings and photo spots dotted the area, we focused on the natural beauty and quiet rhythm of the land. With sturdy shoes and a sense of wonder, Tegalalang offered a serene, unforgettable glimpse into Bali’s soul.
