Rice Terraces Not Unique?


I grew up believing that only the Philippines has rice terraces. My teachers did a fine job of inculcating pride in me for being part of a race that constructed the magnificent Banaue terraces some 2000 years ago.


But one day as I was surfing the net, I came across a site featuring China through photos. And this is what I saw...

I don't know what this is called. I will start searching now. But I must admit my pride was shattered a bit now that I know the terraces might not be unique to the Philippines afterall.
