The Banaue Rice Terraces (Filipino: Hagdan-hagdang Palayan ng Banawe) are 2,000-year-old terraces that were carved into the mountains of Ifugao in the Philippines by ancestors of the indigenous people. The Rice Terraces are commonly referred to by Filipinos as 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 1500 metres (5000 ft) above sea level and cover 10,360 square kilometres (about 6000 square miles) of mountainside. They 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 the globe.
On eleventh of April 2010, I had went to Banaue Rice Terrace with my family. I asked my father who took picture of me when I was posing there. I just wonderful, there is adorable place view. There is stay beautiful in the history, never break down anymore.
We met the people of Ifugao, Banaue. Wonderful, they are strong and stayed their age is more years old. I think they were 100 and some 102 years old. We admired the Ifuago people's age because they were always eating vegetable and usually eating the camote everytime.
I had experienced to travel in Ifugao, Banaue and thanked my family who treated for us to come there since in 2010.
