When banawe rice terraces became a 7 wonders?

The Banaue Rice Terraces were recognized as a finalist in the New7Wonders of the World campaign in 2007, which aimed to identify and promote seven extraordinary cultural and natural sites globally. While the terraces did not make it into the final list, their nomination highlighted their significance as a marvel of engineering and an important cultural heritage site in the Philippines. The terraces, carved into the mountains over 2,000 years ago by the Ifugao people, remain a symbol of sustainable agricultural practices and cultural identity.
