[InKunming--Yunnan]  Yann Arthus Bertrand, a famous aerial photographer from France, brought his crew to photo terrace in Yuanyang on April 1.

Hani terrace fields in Yuanyang County, Yunnan had been a holy land for shutterbugs for a long time.

"Yuanyang's Hani terrace is one of the most beautiful sceneries I have seen in the world. It deserves to be world cultural heritage as its human and nature harmoniously co-exist." said Tich, a member of Yann Arthus Bertrand's camera crew.

Yann Arthus Bertrand said that Yuanyang is the only filmed location he chose to shoot in China. "From the year of 1981 when I came to China for the first time, I have traveled in China for 98 times. Among all the places I have went, Yuanyang's terrace sceneries which moved me decades of years ago is still embedded in my memory." Yann explained why he filmed Hani terrace again.

By report, scenes about Hani terrace will be recorded in a documentary called Human that is made by Yann Arthus Bertrand.

The documentary which was arranged to include scenes of over 60 countries and regions in the world is to be formally shown in the General Assembly of the U.N. in 2015, and is predicted to be published around the world in September, 2015.
