Tegallalang Rice Terrace

The Tegallalang Rice Terrace in Ubud is famous for its stunning scenery featuring subak — Bali’s traditional irrigation system — which, according to history, was passed down by a revered sage named Rsi Markandeya in the 8th century. Tegallalang forms one of the three most beautiful terraced landscapes in the Ubud region, along with Pejeng and Campuhan villages.

Tegallalang offers breathtaking views of lush rice paddies cascading down the slopes of a green valley. Its elevated roadside location makes it a popular spot for travelers to stop and take photos. Painters and nature lovers are drawn here, while nearby art stalls and cafés offer local artwork and refreshments.

Tirta Empul Temple

Tirta Empul Temple is a sacred spring temple featuring classic Balinese architecture. The complex is divided into three main areas: the front yard, middle yard, and inner courtyard. Visitors will first encounter lush gardens and a stone pathway lined with tropical plants and statues before entering through the traditional candi bentar (split gate). Inside, several purification pools flow with holy water where Balinese Hindus perform cleansing rituals.

Tegenungan Waterfall

Located in Sukawati Village, Gianyar, Tegenungan Waterfall is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Bali, standing around 15 meters tall.
