SUBAK MUSEUM

The Subak Museum is in Senggulan village two km east of Tabanan and about four km west of the road junction to Kediri. If you're on an Ubung-Tabanan-Gilimanuk 'bemo', get out when you see the big sign on the road's north side advertising the Taman Senggulan Restaurant, then cross the road and walk 350 meters up the hill.

You'll see the small sign for Mandala Mathika Subak. A single room houses exhibits on the history and development of Bali's unique 'subak' irrigation committees.

This is the only museum on Bali to focus on agriculture, displaying :
• farming implements for cutting, cleaning, and pounding rice
• tools for leveling land, ploughing, weeding and digging water tunnels
• various fish traps
• tweezers for catching eels
• wooden nets used to catch dragonflies
• a miniature kitchen with utensils used for cooking rice
• a scale model of a farming 'kampung' and old-style structures.

Open daily 0730-1830, closed Sunday. Please give a donation
