On every trip to China, I try to bring travelers to the south of China where they can witness the insane beauty of the rice terraces. The terraces are stunning, but also serve a purpose. Farmers are able to plant, even on the sides of hills if they create steps and plateaus up the hills. In addition, the portioned plots serve the purpose of decreasing erosion and runoff.
