Jatiluwih
"I had visited Jatiluwih twice and both the times had found the sky heavily overcast and the rice terraces bereft of the much famed swaying paddy. It had been beautiful nonetheless and the beauty of the watery patches of the rice terraces mirroring the dark brooding clouds had been enchanting. Its cool quiet calm had made me stay at one of the guesthouses for a night and I had woken up to the most refreshingly soft morning."
