Wow, wow, wow!!! You can see a wonderland right from your window 🥹🥹🥹 I really struck gold this time at Longji Rice Terraces! The homestay is built directly in the best scenic spot of the rice terraces. The panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows frame the entire rice terrace like a flowing oil painting 🌾 You can see the rice terraces by standing in front of the window in the morning, and fall asleep under the starry sky at night. - 270° rice terrace view room: Each room has a custom-designed viewing position. The "Mountain View" room where we stayed not only included two delicious breakfasts, but also an exquisite Hermès gift. Sipping ancient tree black tea and watching the clouds flow by, the fairy-tale atmosphere is maxed out 💕 - Their only drawback is that they are too popular 😭😭😭 Be sure to book in advance!!! We were lucky to snag a weekday room 🍀 🏠: Home in the Mountains (Longji Rice Terraces Branch)

The room was nice. The receptionist came to receive us in a parking lot that was a bit far away and they helped us with the luggage both when we arrived and when we left

Pushing the window into the house reveals layered terraces It's like living in a landscape painting Finally understand the sunrise and the forest is open, the clouds return and the cave is dark It's really chill ~~~ —— ✅ 180° panoramic floor-to-ceiling glass windows, wake up with sunlight in the morning ✅Large bathtub➕large terrace, taking photos will make you a god📸 ✅ The boss also very courteously prepared Hermès souvenirs Multiple wishes fulfilled at once! ! ! I feel really warm 🥹🥹🥹 The front desk also thoughtfully prepared a treasure chest 💕 everything! ! ! Watching the stars on the terrace at night✨, I really want to live there for the rest of my life! Sisters, hurry up and remember to book a room in advance. This B&B is too hit 📍: Shanshuijian's Home B&B (Dragon Ridge Terrace Branch)

I never expected that Guilin would hold me back with its food, but this secluded guesthouse also made me want to stay longer. - We booked a room directly facing the rice terraces. The owner said that the terraces are full of green waves in the spring and golden color in the fall. The owner is also very enthusiastic in introducing us to the surrounding area. The 270° panoramic rice terrace view room allows you to nestle here whether it's sunny ☀️ or rainy ☔️. It's healing to sunbathe or listen to the rain. Hidden on the hillside of Longji Rice Terrace, it's like a fairyland when it's surrounded by clouds 🌥️... The main point is that there are few people and beautiful scenery. A good place to stay can really recharge you 🔋. 🏠: Shanshui Jian de Jia Guesthouse (Longji Rice Terrace Branch)
