Longji Rice Terrace

Longji Terraced Fields consist of 8 large and small villages, the most famous of which are Jinkeng Village and Ping'an Village, and a small ancient Zhuang Village. 🎫Ticket combo: 80 yuan Although the scenery of Longji Terraced Fields in June is not the most beautiful It's not easy to come here once, so we came to play on the first day of self-driving Navigate 🧭 to Longji Terraced Fields, arrive at the parking lot, the ticket office is also here First stop: Navigate to "Jinkeng Terraced Fields" Play the farthest first, note ⚠️: the car can drive up The road is narrow, be careful when meeting cars After entering the Dazhai parking lot, we got lost and hungry There are many people on the side of the road beckoning to eat, and there is a grandmother who looks very kind Her restaurant is called "Country Bumpkin", and the grandmother cooks good dishes The price is also reasonable, and she took us to the second viewing platform after dinner In fact, a very small road on the left hand side of the Dazhai parking lot is the road to the self-driving viewing platform, and the parking fee at the entrance of the viewing platform: 10 yuan/time No need to take the cable car, the terraced landscape is magnificent, you can see the Golden Buddha Peak on the opposite side Thanks to the grandmother's guidance, the Jinkeng Terraced Fields are perfect and not pitted! Second stop: Ping'an Village Terraced Fields The scale and scenery cannot be compared with Jinkeng Terraced Fields The famous Nine Dragons and Five Tigers and Seven Stars with Moon viewing platforms are here As soon as the car drove into the parking lot, it was besieged First introduce how difficult it is to walk in the scenic spot, you must take a sightseeing bus Kindly accompany you to buy sightseeing bus tickets 50/person round trip In fact, there is no need to take a sightseeing bus at this scenic spot Parking fee: 7 yuan/hour, which is very expensive, almost catching up with the prices in big cities It's just a walk around the sightseeing platform... Longji Terraced Fields are fun, and I won't come again after coming once... The good mood in Guilin tourism has been completely ruined...

Last month I went to Guangxi with my friends. When it comes to Guangxi, everyone knows that 'Guilin's landscape is the best under heaven'. In fact, around Guilin, there is another beautiful terraced field scenic area - Longji Terraced Fields, known as the 'crown of the world's terraced fields'. Blue sky and white clouds☁, layers of terraces🌾, like a huge ink painting in front of my eyes, exactly the same as what I saw in the TV commercials, casually shooting is a big scene effect, I really regret why I only come now! The terraces have different beauty in each season, the best check-in season is from May to October: 🌾May-June: Watering period, watch 'mirror terraces' 🌾July-September: Growing period, watch 'matcha green terraces' 🌾End of September-October: Autumn harvest period, watch 'golden terraces' ⛰️About the scenic spot: Longji Terraced Fields is a large-scale terraced field group. Ping'an Terraced Fields and Jinkeng Terraced Fields are the main viewing areas. Ping'an was developed earlier and has more tourists. Jinkeng was developed later but is larger and has more viewing points. Therefore, we chose to stay in Jinkeng Terraced Fields this time for convenience. 🏠About accommodation: There are many homestays in the Longji scenic area. We chose the Muye Chenxi Homestay, which is very close to the viewing platform. It takes 5-20 minutes to walk🚶🏻 to the viewing platform 1-2. The important thing is that I really like the design style of this homestay! The overall design comes from the hands of British huang family architects. Whether it's design aesthetics or living experience, it didn't disappoint us. The room is very warm and tidy, and the terraced scenery is just outside the window, which is simply the life I long for~ The homestay also has a 180-degree viewing platform, which is very open and full of green plants🌿🌿. Sitting on the platform and looking into the distance, you can see the scenery of Longji Terraced Fields. The afternoon tea is also very good, the coffee☕ and desserts🍰 are all professional. There are limited desserts in different seasons. I strongly recommend Double Chocolate Parlinne, Passion Fruit Basque, and Rum Cherry Chocolate. With a cup of coffee, sitting on the viewing terrace, blowing the mountain breeze, looking at the terraced scenery in the distance, it's so cool! 🥢About food: There are no special restaurants in the scenic area. We all eat in the homestay, dining on the viewing platform, which is quite comfortable. I didn't expect the food in the homestay to be delicious, very authentic mountain food: spicy chicken, bamboo rice, spring water fish, rice fragrant fish are all must-order. The ingredients are very fresh, and I, a person who doesn't usually like to eat fish, can't stop praising it~ 🚘About transportation: 🚗The most convenient is of course self-driving. The homestay sends the location of 'Tiantouzhai Parking Lot' in advance, and the car can directly reach the door of the shop. The last section of the road is quite steep and narrow. The homestay very thoughtfully arranged for a driver to take us up. 🚌Guilin North Station/Guilin Station/Yangshuo-Longji Terraced Fields Jinkeng Dazhai Parking Lot (you can take a direct bus) The homestay is responsible for the transfer from Dazhai Parking Lot to the shop. 🎫About tickets: Adult ticket: 80 yuan Child ticket: 40 yuan

The Longji Rice Terraces, I had seen a lot before setting off Originally, I wanted to go straight to Jinkeng Dazhai, but it was a bit late when I went Afraid that I wouldn't have enough time to return, I looked at the strategies along the way In fact, each terrace has strong seasonality and the best viewing times. Dazhai in autumn is even more spectacular, while Ping'an Village in May and June has a large amount of water and the earliest irrigation The viewing experience is also stronger! Decisively drove there, it is truly the most beautiful terrace. . 🎫80 yuan per person, free for children under 6 . Ticket exchange tips🔔: Go to the 'Longji Rice Terraces Ticket Office' for ticket exchange, collection, and inspection And it's still far from the terraces, with many winding mountain roads, which are relatively hard to see The main attractions are: Jinkeng Dazhai (most comprehensive), Ping'an Village (most beautiful), and Guzhuang Village (closest) . Ping'an Village touring strategies: The terraces here are the second largest, including 2 viewing platforms ① No. Nine Dragons and Five Tigers Platform Highly recommended! The view is broad and very photogenic. 🚗 Navigate to the parking lot of Ping'an Zhuang Ethnic Rice Terraces Scenic Area, take the sightseeing car up and down, 50 yuan for a round trip per person, free for children under 6. ② No. Seven Stars with Moon Platform Walk for half an hour from the Nine Dragons and Five Tigers viewing platform, this section of the road is relatively flat, and it's easier than going directly there . One-day trip itinerary: For families with children, it's suggested to only visit the Nine Dragons and Five Tigers Platform, where you can walk into the terraces, observe closely, and enjoy a good view, most importantly, the sightseeing car goes directly there, saving effort. If you have the stamina, you can walk from Nine Dragons and Five Tigers to Seven Stars with Moon and then return by car, a round trip of more than one hour, because the sightseeing car only goes to Nine Dragons and Five Tigers. . Two-day trip itinerary: day 1 Stay in a homestay near Ping'an Village, visit one of the viewing platforms in Ping'an Village, experience the local folk customs in nearby villages, and enjoy the night view with lights in the evening. day 2 Visit Jinkeng Dazhai, and choose one of the viewing platforms. The terraces in Dazhai are the largest, including 3 viewing platforms ① No. Xishan Shaole Directly accessible by car ② No. Thousand-Layer Ladder Locals say it's the most beautiful! Navigate directly there; you can also hike up and down, but there are many stairs, and going up will be tiring, the starting point for hiking up and down is at the Jinkeng Dazhai parking lot, walk towards the archway to reach the stairs ③ No. Golden Buddha Peak You can take the cable car up and down, 100 yuan for a round trip per person, buy tickets at the Jinkeng Dazhai parking lot, suitable for the lazy

🚗 Self-driving: The mountain roads are narrow, so drive carefully 👀 🚕 Chartered car: Price is not specified, but it might be more convenient 😌 📱 Ride-hailing: Make sure the location is accurate, and don't just leave after stopping at the ticket office 🚦 🚌 Bus: Direct to Dazhai parking lot, convenient and fast 🚍 - Guilin North/West Station to Jinkeng Dazhai: 65 yuan per person 🎫 - Guilin Station to Jinkeng Dazhai: 50 yuan per person 🎫 - Yangshuo to Dazhai: 90 yuan per person 🎫 - Children under 1.2m half price, with seating 👶 🎫 Terrace ticket: 80 yuan per person, free for the elderly and children 👴👶, half price for students 🎓.

The Longji Rice Terraces are vast, mainly divided into Ping'an Dazhai and Jinkeng Dazhai, each village has its own viewing platform, the scenery is similar, just choose one 🤔. If you have enough time, it is recommended to stay for a night 💤. I went to Jinkeng Dazhai: 🌄 No. 3 Golden Buddha Peak: You can take the cable car up and down, one-way 55 yuan, round trip 100 yuan per person 🚡. We walked back to the mid-mountain homestay from the cable car, and both the elderly and children were quite happy 😄. 🌄 No. 2 Viewing Platform Thousand Layers Terraces: It is said that you can drive near it, we walked there from the homestay, it took about 1 hour to get there, and there were Seven Stars Accompanying the Moon on the way 🌟. However, there was a heavy fog that day, and we couldn't see anything 😑. After waiting for a long time, the fog finally dispersed, we hurried to take photos 📸, but in a few minutes, it was foggy again 🌫. So if you encounter heavy fog, don't rush to leave, wait and see, the scenery is very beautiful 🌅. If you are physically fit, you can walk to each viewing platform, there are well-maintained stone steps, and there are many beautiful terraced fields along the way 🌱. If you have enough time, stay for a night, open the window in the morning, and the mist lingers, like a fairyland 🍃.

The mountain is the dragon's ridge, and the field is the ladder in the cloud.

The terraces extend from the foot of the mountain to the top, layer by layer, stack by stack, poetic and picturesque, and beautiful. Each level has different heights and colors, like the notes of the earth, playing a harmonious and magnificent movement. In the center of the terraced fields, houses stand quietly there, they are the guardians of this golden world, and the symbol of farming culture. The existence of small houses makes this terraced field more full of life, and also adds a touch of human warmth to this beautiful picture. The air here is full of the smell of soil.

Getting There - From Guilin North Station, buy a bus ticket to the the Longji Rice Terrace scenic area (1.5 hours). Once you've reached the ticket office, you can take the shuttle bus (30 minutes) to Longji Ancient Zhuang Village, Ping'an Village, or Dazhai Village, the three villages that serve as gateways to the breathtaking hillside rice fields. Attractions - Longsheng County is home to the famous Longji Rice Terraces, a mind-boggling feat of agricultural engineering. The seemingly endless rows of rice terraces carved into the hillsides are said to resemble the rippling scales on a dragon's backbone when filled with water, giving the terraces their name, which literally means "dragon's spine." Accommodation - Staying overnight in a traditional wooden guesthouse is another great experience. There are many such guesthouses in the villages that overlook the rice terraces, but be aware that their conditions and services are not comparable to hotels in the big cities. Food - Visiting these minority villages is also a great opportunity to try some local cuisine; some of the best-known dishes include rice or chicken cooked inside fresh bamboo tubes. Definitely worth a try!

One of the most incredible views I got to see through my trip in China! The Longji rice terraces are a must see. Tip: add Yangshuo, which is fairly close, to your itinerary.

on our trip to Yangshuo for 3 days , we planned to visit one of the most popular destinations in Guilin the Longsheng rice terraces , it is 3 hours away a from Yangshuo so usually people self drive or book cabs and stay the night at the beautiful hotels , we had to travel back to Yangshuo as everything was closed and completely barren and deserted due to the travel restrictions and covid situation in shanghai literally not a single tourist in sight , though it lets us soak in the beauty of this place in full capacity , you can’t stop thinking about the people who lost business while walking past the closed hotels , restaurants covered in dust and barely any locals around. we wanted to meet and learn more about the ethnic groups of this region but couldn’t as the circumstances didn’t permit.

Eight thousand miles of cloud and moon - Southward Memory Nine: The most beautiful terraces are Longji In late September, I came to the Longji Terrace Scenic Area in Longsheng Various Nationalities Autonomous County, Guilin, and stayed in the Longji Ping'an Village Homestay. In the early morning, I walked up the northwest of the village along the stone-paved plank road, and slowly walked to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the terraces. After walking for more than ten minutes, there were terraces faintly in sight, and soon, the outline of the terraces became clearer. I came to the terrace viewing platform and stood looking out. The terraces on the mountains are extremely beautiful, leaning on the slope, with clear levels and lines. The rice ears in the field are slightly drooping, with a little yellow in the green, blending with the continuous mountains and the vast sky, showing a soft beauty, dazzling and shocking. There is a road sign marked "Seven Stars with the Moon" on the side of the road. It is a great place to view the essence of the terraces. The Seven Stars with the Moon are seven small hilltop terraces surrounding a large hilltop terrace, like seven sparkling stars. Upon closer inspection, it does look a bit like it. This set of images has a strong visual effect, the terraces are majestic and beautiful, layered like rising tides, rushing forward with the momentum of overwhelming mountains and seas, forming a world of oil painting terraces that flaunts power and beauty. The Seven Stars with the Moon takes the terraced rice farming culture as the main body, combines natural landscapes with ethnic minority cultural landscapes, and presents the world with great beauty. Walking and watching, indulging in the scenery, and enjoying the scenery in indulgence is a kind of enjoyment, a "romantic encounter" that can be met but not sought. The scenery changes with every step, and the scenery moistens the heart. Interestingly, in this ocean of terraces, the terraces are small clusters, the largest is only one acre, and most of them are small fields that can only grow two rows of grain, delicate and delicate. It is for this reason that the terraces are extremely beautiful. The terraces shine with the brilliance of ethnic minority culture. Half an hour later, I arrived at the "Nine Dragons and Five Tigers" viewing platform. It is also a unique landscape. The so-called "Nine Dragons" refers to the nine small mountain ridges that the main vein of Longji divides here, and "Five Tigers" refers to the five slightly protruding small hills here. There are already a few more tourists here, mainly young people. This viewing platform is carefully crafted, with multiple platforms at different heights for viewing, and prominent signs such as "World Terrace Hometown" and "Nine Dragons and Five Tigers", a proper internet celebrity check-in place. The terraces in front of me are extremely wide, and the beauty of autumn is intoxicating, and a shocking scenery is displayed in front of me. The lines of the terraces are like flowing clouds and flowing water, layer by layer from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Looking from a distance, it is winding and floating, high and low, uneven, and spectacular. In the center of these small mountain ridges and small hills of the terraces, there is actually a large area of Zhuang stilt buildings. The Zhuang people living here seem to be in a painting, and they seem to be in the fairy mountain of Yaochi. The Longji terraces are majestic and show a domineering atmosphere that dominates the world. It is the crown of the world's terrace landscape and is known as "the world's best". Before returning, I hurriedly walked around the village, because this is a large-scale Zhuang stilt building group, mostly orange-yellow. At noon, I left the Longji Terrace by car. I hope that while the Longji Terrace brings visual enjoyment and satisfaction to the world, it can also bring hope and wealth to the ethnic minorities who were born and grew up here. Longji Terrace
