BANAUE RICE TERRACES - IFUGAO

It is located in Nueva Vizcaya, Ifugao - Mountain Province Rd, Banaue Ifugao, Philippines.
The photo was taken during my travel to Baguio with friends way back 2016, and Banaue Rice Terraces was one of our itinerary. It is one of the amazing spots in the Philippines, that were carved into the mountains of Banaue, Ifugao by the ancestors of indigenous people. Ifugao culture revolves around rice and it elaborates array of celebration linked with agricultural rites from rice cultivation to rice consumption. In fact, Banaue Rice Terraces were declared by the Philippine government as a National Cultural Treasure under Ifugao Rice Terraces. Ifugao people have also an indigenous religion based on the uniqueness to their traditional culture and to the preservation of their life ways and valued traditions. They believe in the existence of thousands of gods, which may enter specific sacred objects such as the bul-ul. Bul-ul is a carved wooden figure used to guard the rice crop by the Ifugao.
