wrong entry - this is not banaue rice terraces

Banaue Rice Terraces are 2000-year old terraces that were carved into the mountains of Ifugao in the Philippines by ancestors of the Batad indigenous people. It is largely thought that the terraces were built with minimal equipments, largely by hand. The terraces are located approximately 5000 feet above sea level and cover nearly 4000 square miles of the mountainside. They are fed by an ancient irrigation system located from the rainforests above the mountains.

The Banaue Rice Terraces is just part of the Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras, ancient sprawling man-made structures dating from 6,000 to 2,000 years ago. They are found in the provinces of Mountain Province and Ifugao. Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

{To the Next One who will edit this, please create an article about the whole Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras. Please mention the fact that the rice terraces are not confined to Banaue; terraces are also found in Bontoc and many other places/towns in Mountain Province and Ifugao. Please also mention that Banaue Rice terraces is a collective name to several pockets of terraces within Banaue town: like Hapao Rice Terraces, Batad Rice Terraces, etc. This article alone is full of misconceptions about this understated 8th wonder}

Locals to this day still tend to the rice and vegetables on the terraces, although more and more younger Ifugaos do not find farming appealing, often opting for the more lucrative hospitality industry generated by the Rice Terraces. The result is the gradual erosion of the characteristic "steps", which need constant reconstruction and care.
