Description

The enticing Longji Rice Terraces (Dragon's Backbone Rice Terraces) in Longsheng have seasonal variations in appearance. It is the most amazing terrace in China. With a history of around 700 years, the Longji Rice Terraces are the culmination of both the profound wisdom and strenuous labor of the Zhuang people.

Itinerary

Admission included240 min

In the morning, your tour guide will pick you up from your hotel lobby at the appointed time. Then a 2-hour drive will take you to Longsheng, where you will visit the Longji Terrace Fields. Located approximately 27 kilometers southeast of Longsheng County, a vast region of rice terraces stretches layer upon layer, coiling around from the base of Longji Mountain to its summit. Upon arrival at the foot of the mountain, you will climb steps to the best observation point on the hillside. The graceful curve of the terrace is just like ribbons crosses or parallels with each other, winding to the sky. Lunch is arranged by yourself. Your guide will be happy to give you some advice.

Admission included300 min

In the afternoon, continue your visit to explore the area in depth. Visit the local Zhuang village. After many years of vicissitudes, the local minority people still keep their traditional way of life and cultivation, and some of them do not like to be pictured. The women dress in unique and colorful costumes, singing, and dancing. It will be a unique cultural experience. When the trip is completed, you will be tansferred back to your hotel in Guilin.

Spectacular view

Was a long ride to get to longsheng, but it was totally worth it! It was very very hot and the wait to take the lift to go up was pretty long and no A/C..but all of that goes away when you star going up! Is amazing, and so perfect! At least for me that I’m afirmó argentina and things are not that lever of perfection. So I recommend you must do it!!

5 Days in Guilin

My friends and I had a wonderful time in Guilin from the time we arrived at the train station till the day we left. My tour guide, TOM WU, made our holiday so enjoyable and relaxing. He is not only friendly and helpful but also always ever handy especially when I have a senior citizen in this trip. Tom and the driver really made our holiday worthwhile and enjoyable. Thank you so much.
