Gao Yao Terraces - A Paradise Untouched by the Mundane

🏞️ Hidden in the magical land of Guizhou lies a breathtaking terrace field yet to be discovered by the masses - the Gao Yao Terraces. Located in Danzhai County, it is as famous as the well-known Jiabang Terraces, but still retains its original tranquility and beauty. 🌾 The terraces here cascade from the foot of the mountain to the top, with a total of 48 layers and a height difference of over 500 meters. Standing on the viewing platform and looking into the distance, it feels like being in a flowing landscape painting. 🌿 The terraces are not only a visual feast but also a crystallization of the wisdom of the local Miao people over thousands of years. Fish are raised in the terraces to prevent pests, eliminating the need for pesticides, ensuring ecological balance. The rice and rice flower fish produced are delicious and healthy. 🏡 Entering the Gao Yao Miao Village, you will see traditional wooden houses with tiled roofs and stilted buildings, and you can also taste authentic Miao cuisine. The villagers are warm and hospitable, making you feel the strong human touch. 🌟 Autumn is the best time to visit, when the golden rice fills the terraces, creating a stunning view. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle and experience true rural life, the Gao Yao Terraces are definitely worth a visit! 🔍 If you are interested in such hidden gems, remember to follow me for more off-the-beaten-path recommendations in Guizhou!
