Hani terraces have different shapes, continuous patches and a vast area. There are not only gentle slopes of 65,438+05 degrees, but also cliffs of 75 degrees. A slope can open 300 1 step at most, extending from the valley to the mountainous area above 2002 meters above sea level, which can reach the highest limit of rice growth.
Hani Terrace is located at the southern foot of Ailao Mountain in Yuanyang County, Yunnan Province, and is the core area of Hani Terrace in Honghe.
Hani terraces are adapted to local conditions with the change of mountainous terrain. If the slope is gentle, the farmland will be cultivated, and if the slope is steep, the farmland will be cultivated, even under the ditch. Therefore, the terraces are several acres, and the small ones are just dustpans, often thousands of acres on a slope.
