Pupuan Rice Terrace
lies in the western part of Bali, a place to fill your eyes with
awesome memories of great landscape accompanied by no one other than the
friendly local farmers. Pupuan is best enjoyed early in the morning or
late in the afternoon on a clear day. When rainy, fog usually follows
the rain and obscures the whole village. With the arrival of the
planting season, the local cultivators start plowing their fields adding
traditional culture to the scenery.
The cultivators have
retained their old way of cultivating their land with the help of
buffalo. As padi grows profusely in the area, a deep green covers the
landscape, resembling a vast emerald rug laid on the slopes of the
hills. The cultivators of these crops share an intimate relationship
with nature. At harvest time, the cultivators cut the paddy with
traditional equipment called “anggapan”. Standing in rows, they sing
while they glean their harvest.
