Rice Terraces Banaue - 2000-year-old terraces that were carved in the Ifugao mountain in the Philippines by the ancestors of the indigenous people. Terraces are commonly referred to by the Filipinos as the "Eighth Wonder of the World". It is believed that the terraces were built with minimal equipment, mostly by hand. They are located about 1500 meters above sea level and cover 10,360 square kilometers of the mountainside. It is estimated that if they were placed closely, they would surround half of the globe. Local people still grow rice and vegetables on terraces. The result is a gradual erosion of this wonder of the world, which needs constant reconstruction and care.
