BANAUE RICE TERRACES
The Banaue Rice Terraces (Filipino: Hagdan-hagdang Palayan ng Banawe) are terraces that were
carved into the mountains of Banaue, Ifugao, in the Philippines, by the ancestors of the Igorot people.
The terraces are occasionally called the "Eighth Wonder of the World. It is commonly thought that the
terraces were built with minimal equipment, largely by hand. The terraces are located approximately
1,500 metres (4,900 feet) above sea level. These are fed by an ancient irrigation system from the
rainforests above the terraces. It is said that if the steps were put end to end, it would encircle half of
the globe.
