Stacks, a photo from Ifugao, Cagayan Valley

Photographer's Note

Housing on a cliff in Banaue, Ifugao, Philippines.

This was taken up in the Cordillera mountains of the Philippines where the temperature is quite cool and tribal people (the Igorots) have lived for centuries. The area is famous for the rice terraces, a 3,000 year-old technology that have been designated as a UNESCO Heritage site.
