Trekking Batad Rice Terraces and Tappiya Falls



Batad is one of the 5 UNESCO world heritage sites in Banaue, Ifugao province, Philippines. The Ifugao Rice Terraces illustrate the remarkable ability of human culture to adapt to new social and climate pressures as well as to implement and develop new ideas and technologies. Although listed by the UNESCO as a World Heritage site believed to be older than 2,000 years. Ifugaoes used to be head hunters. And this is the same tribe that carved out terraces on the sides of mountains 2000 years ago, just mind-boggling.
