You step off the air-conditioned car into a humid chorus of insects, the scent of wet earth and cut grass folding around you. A narrow path threads down from the road and the day opens into green—rice benches plunging and terraces curving like stairways carved by patient hands. Water rushes and calls: a river that dares you to follow it toward shaded caverns and a waterfall that thunders from a mouth of rock.

History
The Tegallalang terraces are maintained through the subak cooperative irrigation system, an ancient communal water-management practice central to Balinese rice culture and ritual life.
Conservation
