Banaue - Ifugao Rice Terraces
Le risaie terrazzate di Banaue sono la manifestazione dell’abilità ingegneristica degli Ifugao. Sono irrigate tramite sorgenti e torrenti di montagna chiusi e convogliati in canali che scendono dai pendii attraverso le terrazze.
The rice terraces manifest the engineering skill of the Ifugaos. They are irrigated by means of mountain streams and springs that have been tapped and channelled into canals that run downhill through the rice terraces.

I Terrazzamenti di Banaue fanno parte dei Terrazzamenti della Cordillera Filippina, una serie di antiche strutture costruite sulle montagne dell'isola di Luzon (Filippine) circa 2.000 anni fa, dagli antenati della popolazione indigena Ifugao. Si ritiene che queste terrazze siano state costruite con un uso minimo di utensili, principalmente a mano. Esse si trovano a circa 1500 metri di altezza e sono solcate da un antico sistema di irrigazione, proveniente dalle foreste pluviali che si trovano a monte delle terrazze.
The Banaue Rice Terraces are 2,000-year-old terraces that were carved into the mountains of Luzon Island in the Philippines by ancestors of Ifugao, 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 above sea level. They are fed by an ancient irrigation system from the rainforests above the terraces.

The spectacular rice terraces of Batad Village in Ifugao Province, Philippines
If you look closely to the bottom half of the image you'll see the numerous steps used by the locals to scale one section of the terraces. It is a feat just to move from one terrace to another let alone moving grains and produce manually.
The farming practice in the mountainous provinces of northern Philippines dates back to more than 2000 years. Due to the daunting landscape, the use of modern machinery is minimal except perhaps for milling the grains. The terrace construction, upkeep and irrigation is an astounding feat of engineering and manual workmanship. Plowing and transplanting each rice seedling is a back-breaking activity.
Beautiful in their grandeur, these terraces are testaments to the harsh traditional life in northern Philippines and the hardiness and astounding industry of the locals who live there.
Ifugao is both a geographic location and an ethnolinguistic group of Filipinos who inhabit a landlocked, mountainous region in Northern Philippines. Spanish colonizers were not able to spread Catholicism in much of the area due to the rough terrain and the group's resistance to change so the culture mostly pre-dates the arrival of Westerners.

This Ifugao village sits among the Batad rice terraces near Banaue, Ifugao, Philippines. Built by hand 2,000 years ago, the Ifugao refer to the terraces as "stairways to heaven".

In the foreground is a stone hagabi that was commissioned to be made by Owen C. Tomlinson, Ifugao’s first American military governor who served from 1911 until 1915, for the inauguration of the then sub-province's administrative building. In the background is a war memorial patterned after a traditional Ifugao house and built in 1974 to commemorate the end of World War II in the Philippines.
