The Banaue Rice Terraces are inhabited by indigenous Ifugao communities who have maintained their traditional way of life for generations. The terraces are divided into smaller plots of land, each owned and cultivated by individual families. Farmhouses, known as "bale" or "houses of men," are scattered throughout the terraced landscape, providing shelter for farmers and their families during the planting and harvesting seasons. These traditional wooden structures are built using indigenous materials such as wood, bamboo, and thatch, and are designed to withstand the harsh mountain environment. Visitors to the Banaue Rice Terraces can experience the unique culture and hospitality of the Ifugao people by staying in homestays or guesthouses run by local families.
