Terraced fields exemplify the harmonious coexistence of human ingenuity and nature. They carry rich agricultural traditions and historical memories,and their value in preserving biodiversity,ensuring food security,and promoting regional economic development is immeasurable. The Ziquejie Terraces,recognized as both a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System and a World Heritage Irrigation Structure,are the product of the collective labor of the Miao,Yao,Dong,Han,and other ethnic groups throughout history. These terraces are a historical testament to the merging of mountain hunting cultures with rice farming cultures.

Through these efforts,it aims to provide concrete examples of "authentic protection,living use,and industrial integration" for the world.
