Yuanyang’s Bada Rice Terraces stand as a testament to the breathtaking beauty of the region, drawing travelers and photographers alike to witness the awe-inspiring spectacle of nature’s grandeur.

Part of the Honghe Hani Rice Terraces and designated as a World Heritage Site in 2013, the Bada Rice Terraces encompass a sprawling 950 hectares of land, resembling ladders ascending to the heavens with over 3,700 levels. Stretching from 800 meters to 2,000 meters in elevation, these terraces evoke a sense of vastness, magnificence, and beauty with their gracefully curved lines and three-dimensional depth.

Surrounding the rice terraces are picturesque villages such as Quanfuzhuang, Malizhai, Bada, and Shangmadian, nestled amidst the verdant landscapes. From these vantage points, travelers and photographers are treated to panoramic views of the charming villages framed by the intricate patterns of the rice paddies.

For photographers in particular, the Bada Rice Terraces offer an unparalleled opportunity to capture the magical moments of sunset, as the golden hues cast over the terraced landscape create a scene of unparalleled beauty and tranquility. As the sun dips below the horizon, illuminating the terraces in a warm glow, it’s as if nature itself is putting on a spectacular show, leaving an indelible impression on all who bear witness to its splendor.
