Banaue Rice Terraces
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banaue_Rice_Terraces
The 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.

Getting to Banaue: http://wikitravel.org/en/Banaue

Batad. While the rice terraces of Banaue are mud-walled, those of Batad are stone-walled. They form an amphitheatre and are an impressive sight. Fifteen km. on bad roads, followed by a 40 minute downhill hike, but worth it. There is a public jeepney plying the Banaue to Saddle Point (start of trek to Batad village) route daily. Banaue to Saddle Point is around 2 to 4 pm while the Saddle Point to Banaue jeepney is around 9:30 am to 10:30 am. They may take extra trips during the peak season (e.g. Holy week). Head on to the Banaue public market and ask around. Fare is P100 to P150 for tourists while the locals pay P45.
