North of Luzon - Rice Terraces on the Mountains

From Manila I hit the road on a long night bus to the small city of Banaue. It is in the middle of the Ifuago land, which is known for its rice terraces on the mountains slopes. Unesco declared it a world heritage site and it is indeed very beautiful and impressive. The local villagers build those terraces around 2000 years ago and they dominated the view.

I also visited Batad and Banga-An before coming back to Manila.
