Don't bother, they make you pay to see a rice padi!, You can view for free from Cafe. You only need to pay to enter! I suppose if you want to spend time walking around down there, go for it. |

The rice terraces are directly beside the streets. They look nice, but a very touristic. You just find a big parking lot or parking lots of the local coffee farmers. Parking along the street is forbidden. I liked other rice terraces around ubud more |

The most beautiful views. Lots of places to stop along the way and take photos on swings and go into parks that are set up for photo sessions. |

I totally enjoyed the visit to Tegallalang, and although it says it's open 24 hours I really think one should not go after dark if you are simply a visitor. There are too many places where a misstep or a lack of lighting (which is understated because it's pitch black after dark) will land you knee-deep in mud and paddy water. Just ask my girlfriend and her shoe. |

Ceking Rice Terrace in Bali beckons travelers with promises of lush landscapes and iconic terraced fields, but my recent visit left me with a mixed bag of impressions. While the dry paddy fields exude a rustic charm, the overshadowing issue of commercialization and expensive rides dampened the experience, making Jatiluwih Rice Terrace a more enticing alternative. Please note this is a private enterprise , where as Jatiluwih is a under Govt.<br><br>The dry paddy fields of Ceking present a different facet of Bali's agricultural beauty. The golden hues of the parched landscape offer a unique visual appeal, showcasing the resilience of Balinese farmers and their adaptation to the challenges of the environment. The undulating terraces create a captivating pattern against the backdrop of the surrounding hills, making it a picturesque location for those seeking a less conventional view of Bali's rice terraces.<br><br>However, the downside to the Ceking experience is the apparent commercialization that has taken hold. As I explored the area, it became clear that the charm of the landscape was somewhat overshadowed by the aggressive push towards commercial activities. The once pristine agricultural setting now accommodates an array of expensive rides and attractions, from overpriced swings to costly photo opportunities. This shift towards commercialization detracts from the authentic and serene ambiance that one would expect from a rural farming landscape.<br><br>Comparatively, the Jatiluwih Rice Terrace, while also a tourist hotspot, manages to retain a more genuine and unique charm. The intricate subak irrigation system and the lush greenery create a mesmerizing spectacle that feels less marred by overt commercial ventures. Jatiluwih's terraces, though frequently visited, maintain a certain purity and tranquility that sets them apart from the more crowded and commercialized atmosphere of Ceking.<br><br>The exorbitant prices for rides and attractions at Ceking further exacerbate the sense of commercial exploitation. What could have been an opportunity to appreciate the authenticity of Balinese rural life is, unfortunately, diluted by the constant pressure to partake in expensive experiences. This overcommercialization leaves visitors feeling more like consumers than travelers seeking an authentic connection with the local environment. |

Super touristy place. I was told by a locals, that the rice terraces are not really being used for the purpose of producing rice any longer - now it is a camera magnet. And while you are able to get one or two good shots, it is quite a fight to keep the photo un-disturbed by the 100-1000 other tourists who are walking around, or the equal number of locals selling cheap and low-quality souvenirs. |

Je ne sais pas ce que vous recherchez, mais si c’est de l’authenticité et du charme, ce n’est évidemment plus le cas…peut être il y a quelques années mais là on a l’impression d’être à Disney land! Gros restaurants, pleins de monde, des tyroliennes, des balançoires où les gars qui poussent la personne crient toutes les 5sec (certainement pour rajouter du piquant) bref….on a été déçu, peut être qu’on est trop exigeant…heureusement que ce n’est que 50k/pers l’entrée…et encore il doit y avoir des rice field gratuits et sans le tralala touristique! |

If you are in Bali you have to go there. It's such a beautiful place! There are a couple ways you can get there (not counting tours). You can get a taxi and be dropped there. Or you can rent a taxi for the day : count 600,000 rupias for 12 hours. I recommend getting a private driver. Therefore you'll be able to explore by yourself and spend as much time as needed. Also, ask your driver to take you through "the other entrance", the one that is free (you have to give 2000 rp donation) and that is a lot less crowded (we were the only ones). It's very close to the main entrance. |

This place is definitely a beautiful photo op. Unfortunately, it is touristy in the worse possible way. As you walk through the fields you are continually pestered by aggressive... I'm not sure what to call them... "Keepers of the rice terraces"? They stop you and point to signs asking for "donations". But these donations are mandatory for non-locals and they insist harshly that you keep paying at different intervals to walk further into the fields. I think asking for an admission fee is more than reasonable as we are traipsing through someone's livelihood, however the aggressive nature which money is asked for just hinders the entire experience. It's hard to really enjoy the beauty around you when you feel like you have to be on guard. There are other rice terraces to set in Bali that are just as beautiful, if not more so, and that feel a lot more 'authentic'.<br>Lots of cafés are perched just off of the road overlooking the terraces that offer great vistas but they are pricey and not particularly noteworthy. |

It's a tourist trap. If you're into instagram and facebook, then maybe you should go. But if you want to connect to the real Bali or be enchanted, I'm not sure that this is the place. At least, if you're going, go before 9am. That way, you're not breathing fumes and walking in a queue down the field. You might even get an overlook or platform all to yourself! :) |

Beautiful rice fields in the jungle. Entrance is 10k and you can find several swings inside (~100k). Go early in the morning to avoid the heat as there is a lot of trekking up and down the rice paddies |

Είναι μια ξεχωριστή εμπειρία, σε ένα μαγευτικό τοπίο! Τεράστιος οριζώνας, μέσα στη ζούγκλα, με απίθανη βλάστηση και εξαιρετική ομορφιά. Αξίζει και είναι το top σημείο για φωτογραφίες, κούνια από πολύ μεγάλο ύψος με θέα όλο αυτό το τοπίο, και για τους πιο τολμηρούς zip line! Ήρθαμε Νοέμβριο, καθημερινή, μεσημέρι και δεν είχε πολύ κόσμο. |

Very nice view of deep valley and paddy. But lot would depend on which season you go, else you may find it bit dry. Few small restaurants, cafes for a comfortable seating and nice view of the valley/ rice terraces.<br><br>Hire a Honda scooter (there are ample rental options in Ubud - they provide helmets as well) and drive to this place. It's much more enjoyable than going in car, as you will spend hours in traffic jams, given narrow roads.<br><br>On the way from Ubud, there are countless shops selling artifacts, furniture, and gift items |

What a shame! Beautiful rice terraces however very overcrowded. Somehow the mood wasn't right either. Visitors were as annoyed as we were. An entrance is not required only allegedly a "donation". But that has to be paid every few meters! Thus the donation as one knows it is also not voluntary, because who does not pay may not go on. For a donation I have understanding would always give something, however, if you already pay generously at the entrance you do not expect to have to pay every 10m something! Pretty bold and annoying. So also for photos. Unfortunately, it is not possible to take a photo at every spot, because in many places just where the view into the rice fields is the most beautiful, 25k IdR are required per photo what is taken with own mobile phone. We didn't like it and I wouldn't recommend it in any case.<br><br>Schade! Wunderschöne Reisterassen jedoch sehr überlaufen. Irgendwie stimmte die Stimmung auch nicht. Besucher waren genauso wie wir ziemlich genervt. Ein Eintritt wird nicht verlangt lediglich angeblich eine "Spende". Die allerdings alle paar Meter zu zahlen ist! Somit ist das Spenden wie man es kennt auch nicht freiwillig, denn wer nicht zahlt darf nicht weitergehen. Für eine Spende hab ich Verständnis würde immer etwas geben allerdings wenn man am Eingang schon großzügig zahlt erwartet man nicht alle 10m etwas zahlen zu Müssen! Ziemlich dreist und nervig. So auch für Fotos. Es kann leider nicht an jeden Spot ein Foto geschossen werden, denn an vielen Stellen gerade wo die Sicht in die Reisfelder am schönsten ist werden pro Foto was mit eigenem Handy aufgenommen wird 25k IdR verlangt. Hat uns nicht gefallen und würde ich auch auf keinen Fall empfehlen. |

Great place to visit while you are in Ubud area! The best is to be there early, at 8-9 the latest to avoid the crowd. Admission is theoretically free but on the way you will be stopped at least twice to give donation. 5-10 k IDR per person is enough, people are pushing you to give more than 2k so be prepared with the change! At the top you may taste different types of tea and coffee to choose one. Toilet is also available there paid 5k for non-customers. Be aware that it is Indonesian style toilet! No paper is provided! There are at least three or four swings available at extra price there. As everywhere there is a lot of rubbish unfortunately. |

If it's one time charge to access it is okay. But 3 times along the way asking for donation, even pushing me to give donation. Bad behaviour I have never seen before. Donation seem not free of will. The pathway was quite slippery, dangerous when wet. Just better they charge one time only and since I understand indonesian the guards, kids asking for money for their postcards, the old men asking for donation do not talk nice about you. |

Augen auf, TripAdvisor lesen, dann entgeht man den Abzocken und hat das volle Erlebnis<br><br>An manchen Treppenabgängen stehen Wächter die Geld wollen, an manchen nicht.<br>Unterwegs wird immer wieder eine Art Spende / Wegezoll recht aufdringlich verlangt. 10.000 ist gefordert. Nachdem wir beim zweiten nur noch 2.000 gaben, hat dieser das nicht akzeptiert, uns aber auch nicht vom weiterlaufen abgehalten.<br><br>Von der Straße aus gesehen, oben rechts geht ein Tal nach hinten zu sehr schönen Terrassen. Diese sind viel schöner bewirtschaftet als die vorderen, die scheinbar nur fürs Geld machen da sind und voller Algen sind.<br><br>In diesem Tal gibt es Kioske usw. bei denen ältere einheimische gerne ein Foto machen, ohne dafür Geld zu verlangen.<br><br>Man muss auch hier, wie bei vielen anderen Attraktionen in Bali, vorab sich etwas informieren, wie die Maschen sind und dann kann man diese umgehen und ein tolles Erlebnis haben.<br><br>Wir haben insgesamt 12.000 IDR "Eintritt" zu zweit gezahlt und eine Cola für 20.000 bei dem netten alten Mann. |

You will need a degree of fitness to walk up and down the very uneven steps but, if you can manage it, it's worth it although, you can see terraced rice fields from many locations in Bali without the risk to your knees. Entry is free but be prepared to make small donations as you progress. Not a huge imposition so be courteous. Be prepared to be here for at least a couple of hours. |

They ask entry tickrt which is 25 thousant each person , nothing crazy. Yet you can actually go in for free from different entry ti the terrace. Also when you pay and you are directed to the rice terrace, within a sjort walk they ask anither 10thousant to cross a bridge tk the ither side of the field. Which is crazy! Just walk in on the other side and you get to the same place for free! While its not a huge amount kf money wheb you backpack it matters, and any money is value. So uts not ncie when they try to get to your pocket everywhere unnecessarily! |

A very famous waterfall. Tons of water coming down. You can see how powerfull it is. The scenery is amazing from the top. But for my it doesn't get better when you go down. You're to far from the waterfall. Swiming under is forbidden. (Rocks falling). You will also find a small temple and a pool filled by natural water |
