Teres Padi Yang Indah
Di negara China, terdapat satu ciptaan tangan manusia yang begitu indah dan cantik hinggakan ramai jurufoto terkenal mengagumi dan terpeson dengan keunikan alam semulajadi itu.
Terdapat kawasan teres padi di pergunungan Yuanyang yang juga merupakan pengeluar padi terbesar di dunia.
Apa yang menariknya, pemandangan di kawasan itu umpama cermin yang bercahaya setiap kali tibanya waktu senja kerana ia dihasilkan oleh biasan cahaya matahari ke kawasan itu.
Di kawasan Yuanyuang, penduduk yang menetap di kawasan itu adalah kumpulan etnik Hani.
Mereka telah mengusahakan tanaman padi sejak 1,300 tahun yang lalu.
Teres padi itu dibina di kawasan cerun curam kawasan pergunungan itu yang ketinggiannya antara 1,000 hingg 2,000 meter di atas paras laut.
Penduduk di situ akan menanam padi setahun sekali iaitu pada bulan April dan akan menuainya pada bulan September.

The Hani people's ancestors came to the steep mountain area 2,500 years ago.
In their struggle against the difficult terrain they transformed the land into terraced rice paddies where they grew rice to make a living.

    The creativity of the Hani people has not only transformed the area into a fertile area to grow rice but also a place of artistic beauty. 
    In recognition, the Ming Dynasty emperor granted the title of Skillful Sculpture to the Hani people and the fields have been officially acknowledged by UNESCO as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage site.
