About this experience
Heading to Buwun Sejati Village: A Scenic Journey Through Rice Terraces, River and Rain Forest
The rice terraces are undoubtedly one of the most captivating features along the route. These stepped fields, meticulously carved into the hils by local farmers, create a stunning patchwork of greens, each level filed with water during the planting season, reflecting the sky above. The intricate design of the terraces is not just a sight to behold, but a testament to the harmony between the people and the land. Walking along the narrow paths that separate the terraces offers a chance to appreciate the sheer beauty of these agricultural marvels
