The Ifugao Rice Terraces

THE IFUGAO RICE TERRACES (The Philippines)

The Ifugao people in remote areas of the northern Philippines have been shaping the land to fulfill their needs for over 2,000 years, handing down the knowledge of building and maintaining these life-giving structures from one generation to the next. The terraces blend engineering, social cohesion, agriculture, and beauty into a sacred tradition.
