The Rice Terraces of Banaue

Last summer, Lila and I visited the Cordilleras, the mountain range in northern Luzon Island that is still largely inhabited by indigenous peoples.
We were headed for Sagada, where we saw little due to a poorly-timed typhoon.
But in Banaue, site of the World-Heritage rice terraces, we got an eyeful.
This post and next I'll show you a couple of things we saw. Mostly the pictures will do the talking.
This time, the land:
