Yuanyang Rice Terraces
Famous for their stunning beauty and cultural significance, these terraces are a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Yuanyang Rice Terraces are a breathtaking example of Hani ethnic minority's agricultural prowess. These terraces have been sculpted into the mountains over 1,300 years and create a mesmerizing landscape of cascading fields. The terraces are particularly stunning at sunrise and sunset, when the light reflects off the water-filled fields. Visitors can hike through the terraces, visit traditional Hani villages, and experience the rich cultural heritage of the region.
