| [2][3] An intricate system of canals and ditches divert the water into the terraces below. | WIKI |
| The mountain top forests are the lifeblood of the terraces in capturing and sustaining the water needed for the irrigation. | UNESCO |
| There are four types of forests, the ancient xe2x80x98water rechargexe2x80x99 forest, sacred forest, consolidation forests, and village forests for the provision of timber for building, food and firewood. | UNESCO |
| Clefts in the rocks channel the rain, and sandstone beneath the granite mountains traps the water and then later releases it as springs. | UNESCO |
| A complex system of channels has been developed to spread this water around the terraces in and between different valleys. | UNESCO |
| Criterion (iii): The Honghe-Hani terraces are an outstanding reflection of elaborate and finely tuned agricultural, forestry and water distribution systems that are reinforced by long-standing and distinctive socio-economic-religious systems. | UNESCO |

| Criterion (v): The Honghe Hani Rice terraced landscape reflects in an exceptional way a specific interaction with the environment mediated by integrated farming and water management systems, and underpinned by socio-economic-religious systems that express the dual relationship between people and gods and between individuals and community, a system that has persisted for at least a millennium, as can be shown by extensive archival sources. | UNESCO |
| The overall boundary encompasses a large area within which the overall terraced system can be appreciated and all its attributes, forests, water system, villages and terraces are present to a sufficient degree. | UNESCO |
| So as to ensure there is a clear understanding of what is being sustained and how tourists can support the overall management process, it would be desirable if the Management Plan could be supported by a detailed Sustainable Eco-Tourism Strategy for the property and its buffer zone and by an Interpretation Strategy that allows understanding of the complex farming and water management systems and the distinctive social-economic and religious systems of the Hani communities. | UNESCO |
