Banaue Traveler's Guide: Philippines Tourism
Banaue is a striking example of a geographical wonder that captivates the senses and the intellect alike. The complex mosaic of rice terraces that welcomes you as soon as you enter this tranquil area is a captivating sight that almost looks unreal, blending in well with the lush surroundings. The Ifugao people dug these seemingly endless terraces into the mountains over 2,000 years ago, demonstrating a long-standing agricultural method that combines human creativity with the land's inherent features.
Situated at a significant height, the region which is a component of the greater Ifugao province has a comparatively colder temperature than the Philippines' lowland districts. A thick layer of forests covers the rolling hills and slopes that support the town of Banaue, offering a rich environment for a wide range of plants and animals. The sounds of the streams and rivers that wind through this lush forest, feeding the farms and supporting a diverse range of wildlife, reverberate.
It is hard to visit Banaue and not get enthralled with the region's elaborate network of rice terraces. The terraces, which are recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, exhibit an impressive irrigation system. This method, which makes use of the waters from the rainforests located above the terraces, is an excellent example of sustainable agriculture, in which the natural resources are used sparingly to grow rice, the main crop in the area
