Veins of the Earth

彩云之南-元阳-胜村-大地脉搏

 

Breathtaking view of the terraced rice fields on top of the Ailao mountain @ Yuanyang, Yunnan province of China. There are more than 170K acre of terraced rice fields spreaded all over Ailao mountains, from bottom to the top of the hill. These were created by peoples of Hani and Yi minorities, who have living in the mountains since 1300 years back.
