Tegallalang Rice Terrace, Ubud

<p>Tegallalang Rice Terrace is one of the famous and well known terraced paddy field in Bali. It wasn&#39;t that exciting for me as I hail from a place known for paddy cultivation. There are also number of shops or warungs to eat, drink and shop during your time their.</p> <p>However, I noticed that though you pay upfront 10k IDR as entry fee, there are a number of &quot;donation&quot; posts set out their along your walk in the field and in this part of the world donations are <em>mandatory</em>. The reason for donations I heard was that <em>bridge maintenance</em>,&nbsp;<em>different owner&nbsp;</em>and I gave it up when I reached the third one. It was bit late that I came to know about a larger UNESCO paddy field&nbsp;further along the way which doesn&#39;t have this donation menace.</p>
