Those aren't rice terraces... Andean architecture was in principal harmonious with the natural landscape. Some hills were treated as deities and some Andeans have said you can't cut down a banana tree because the plant is like your father or mother.
The reason they called it the New World was because the nature was pristine because it was considered sacred and treated with respect, that's why the Ancient Americas could be compared to the garden of Eden.
