Terraces are made by cutting flat areas into sloped land to create level surfaces for agriculture or construction. This process involves excavating soil and rock to form steps or platforms, which help to reduce soil erosion and manage water runoff. The construction of terraces often includes the use of retaining walls to hold back soil and create stable, usable land. They are commonly found in hilly or mountainous regions where traditional farming would be challenging.
