Rice Terraces of Jatiluwih is always identically with the water system that has been run by local residents since the 11th century, named Subak. Subak is an irrigation system developed based on Balinese Hindu religion which is believed as a local wisdom that helps farmers to work harmoniously with nature and acquire optimal results. Subak is also one of the manifestations of Tri Hita Karana philosophy (the philosophy of maintaining balance between man and his fellows, man with nature, and man with the Creator). Since June 2012 subak has been listed as one of the UNESCO cultural world heritage sites during a congregation meeting in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
