Known for intricately carved rice terraces, a visit to a terraced rice field is an enjoyable way to spend a lazy afternoon. Two that are worth visiting in the Ubud area include the Tagallalang Rice Terrace and Sayan Rice Terrace which are within 30 minutes of the main town and are worth the short motorbike ride.
