Why Sibetan Village is special ?
Dukuh Sibetan is a village at the foot of the active volcano Gunung Agung, on the road from Rendang to Amlapura. After the last eruption in 1963 Dukuh Sibetan was covered with a layer of ash and rocks so any kind of farming was impossible. The people of the village are aware of their dangerous position. Cultivating the land for agriculture (eg. rice) was impossible. Outside the village Sibetan is surrounded by rice fields and forests. The village lies at an altitude of 400 to 600 meters. One of the few crops. who could survive after the eruption, was the Salak-palm with its snake fruit. The name "snake fruit" with its little white flesh inside has a skin that looks like even snakeskin. As a blessing in disguise is Dukuh Sibetan now the specialist in Salak.
