Get DirectionsThe Bakiang Valderrama Rice Terraces, also known as the Antique Rice Terraces, are a stunning agricultural and cultural landmark located in Barangay Fullon, San Remigio, at the heart of Panay Island, Antique. Spanning a combined area of 600 hectares, these terraces are beautifully situated in a valley surrounded by rolling hills and mountain peaks, and are nourished by the Iglangit and Igtamoni waterfalls​​.
Constructed around the 1920s by the indigenous Iraynon Bukidnon people, the terraces are a testament to their resilience and ingenuity. They continue to maintain these terraces using traditional practices like “muyong,” which involves preserving forests above the terraces to maintain soil fertility and prevent erosion​.
The trek to the terraces is challenging, involving steep and rugged trails, but it offers breathtaking views and a deep connection with the local culture. This remote yet serene destination provides visitors a glimpse into traditional farming practices and a tranquil retreat from modern life.AddressValderrama, AntiqueContact DetailsEmail: [email protected]Operational HoursOpen DailyBest time to visitAnytimeHow to get thereFrom the airports (Iloilo or Caticlan), you can hop on transit to bring you to van terminals that can transport you to Bugasong Junction.
