Sidemen Valley Rice Terraces

07:00 AM

5/5

Free to walk, no entrance fee at all — the real find of the whole trip. About an hour and a half past Ubud so most tour groups skip it entirely, meaning the rice terraces here (arguably more dramatic than Tegallalang, with Mount Agung as a backdrop) had almost nobody on them. A couple of family-run warungs along the road did a full lunch for under 40,000 IDR (~$2.60), clean and genuinely home-cooked.

A quieter, less-touristed rice valley east of Ubud with Mount Agung as a backdrop — Bali the way it looked before Tegallalang got famous. #Sidemen #Bali #HiddenGem
