Tabanan Overview
Tabanan is the largest district in Bali and is also the rice centre of the island of the gods. This district is slightly different from other districts in Bali. Its fertile land with abundant water sources makes the Tabanan area the centre of agriculture in Bali. Local people mostly live by farming and some work in tourism. The view of green rice fields with rice terraces makes this area famous in foreign countries. Jatiluwih is a well-known agricultural area with fantastic rice terraces. This area offers views of rice fields from the foot of Mount Batukaru to the beach. Likewise, the fresh and cool air makes tourists who visit this place feel at home for a long time. Tabanan has maintained the balance of nature by consistently applying the Hindu Tri Hita Karana concept of life.<br />
Meanwhile, Subak is an agricultural organization that regulates water irrigation and farming systems, one of the unique cultural heritage. Similarly, the local government established the Subak Museum to preserve this unique local culture. For that, UNESCO has given an award by selecting the Jatiluwih area as an Intangible Cultural Heritage. Meanwhile, Tabanan continues to grow by providing world-class tourist facilities. We can find many hotels and villas with luxurious rooms in this area. Likewise, this district also has famous tourist attractions, such as Tanah Lot, Jatiluwih, and Bedugul.
