While I was in Indonesia I was able to visit a rice terrace....thanks to visiting the tea plantation. On the way to the tea plantation we had to pay to enter this region.
As part of the payment we were able to visit the rice terraces. They were beautiful!
I said I wanted to try this tea and my friend bought it for me. I admit I did not read the label, I just saw Red Rice Tea! I thought it would be rice mixed with tea, but it was just red rice.
I steeped it. I thought it smelled like popcorn. It was okay, it was like starch water. I chuckled as I drank it...thinking they got another tourist, hahahahahhaa.
I enjoyed viewing the rice, it was so picturesque.
It appeared a storm was rolling in, but it never rained while we there.
They had market vendors along the side of the road....and as a tourist I love that. Being able to snag something from the town if I want too. Plus, you get to see the locals.
I found it interesting that this village is now one of the traditional villages that is showcased as a tourist attraction and is overseen by the government.
These are the largest rice terraces in Bali. It is 700 meters above sea level. It is just under 131,000 acres.
The flowers were beautiful...
