Come and copy the homework! This guide to Longji Terraced Fields is enough

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

Rice Terrace Walks

🚌 We took a 2 hour bus from Guilin City centre at 09:00 and back again at 17:30. You can book this through the local tour guide agencies around town. 🥾There is an option to take the cable car, but if you are moderately active, take the hiking path down instead. It will take you through some villages, houses and get you close up pictures with the rice fields. 🥟There are plenty of local food options at the start and top of the terrace. Pack your own food and snacks for some energy if you are hiking as there are only 2 stops along the way to buy water/ drinks. #riceterrace #naturelover #chinatravel #longjiriceterrace

A trek to Longji Rice Terraces

#china #guilin #wintergetaway Visiting Longji rice terraces was one of the top things on my list on my last trip to Guilin. We went during winter season, so the terraces were filled with water and reflected the warm sun as we hiked up the hills to see them. We loved not only the beautiful views, but also the hospitality from the local minority people who walked us there and also fed us in their home with traditional bamboo cooked rice.

#fallingforfall Pictures speak louder than words ✌️ How to get there: local bus or Didi What’s to see: rice, rice everywhere Costs: free Time needed: full day, best stay in a local homestay up the hill and make it a weekend trip time: autumn to have all the colors popping and a good temperature to walk it!

Longji Rice Terrace

The Longhorn Rice Terrace, located in the town of Longji, which is roughly 100 kilometers from Guilin, China. There are lots of tourists agent provide one day trip from the city of Guilin. If you have never seen Rice Terrace before, this one is a must go. The view is so spectacular. There are choices of cable car or climb up. I choose not to take cable car this time, and the hiking is not bad at all. The view is fantastic along the route and you can even see some old villages along the route. The view on the top is even more great though, so if you are not a sport person, maybe just take the cable car. This place is more beautiful in fall time, but prepare for lots of tourists if you chose to go during the busy season

Beautiful Rice Terraces

A wonderful day trip from Guilin. We arranged a private driver to take us as it was very hot and didn't want to spend the entire day exposed. There are, however, several options for organised tours available with the tourist agencies in Guilin. The drive from Guilin is nothing short of beautiful and the terraces are spectacular. Several villages on the way to stop for refreshments. We left after lunch and had enough time to visit only one of the terraces. If you go early in the morning you will be able to visit all three and visit the village where the women have very long hair. The cable car is a quick and easy way to get to the top of the terrace, but you can also hike up if you have more time.

An incredible monument to human labor💪💪💪

This is definitely one of the most mindblowing attractions that we've visited in China so far! It is hard to believe that all these terraces are made by hands of peasants under the shining southern sun! We would definitely recommend to take a cableway first upon arrival and to take a small hike to your hotel after to get immediate dive into local atmosphere! 🚕🚎🚌 It is convinient to get here from Guilin by bus, that departures from Xiangjiang hotel ( 广西壮族自治区桂林市象山区环城西一路141号) around noon. It is a long distance bus, that goes without stops through really picturesque mountains! 🏞🏔🗻 This is a perfect place for hiking, with absolutely amazing roots. There are short and long trails, pretty wild and developed ones, designed to enjoy sunrises and sunsets. Everyone will be definitely able to find one suitable for themselves! 🏚🏠🏡 You can find all kind of boutique hotels here - not only fancy and glamorous, but also very simple and authentic options. 🍟🍔🍕 Local authentic Chinese cuisine is available more or less everywhere in small villages along terraces, but finding some European cuisine can be little bit challenging. Be aware that there are no McDonalds, KFC and other fast food chains here, but you can always enjoy a bowl of famous delicious local noodles pretty much everywhere. Overall, we could definitely say, that these rice terraces should be 'must visit' on your travel list, highly highly recommended! #summervacation #staycation #nationalpark #naturalwonders

Spectacular Longji Rice Terrace Views

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!

Rice terraces in Guilin

Guilin has magical places but my favourite was Longsheng Rice Terraces, also known as Longji Rice Terraces. This place offers amazing landscapes which can be visited all year long as it changes completely according to the season. if you want to see the rice fields in golden shades as my pictures then it is recommended to go during autumn. Getting there requires a driver as it is located at 77 km from the city. #travellater #guilin #china

longsheng Rice terrace during May day holiday

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.

Hike along the rice terrance

Beautiful sunny day! Three day holiday in Guilin. One day was just hiking the area. Would definitely recommend!

Longji Rice Terraces; a bus ride to remember

As soon as we landed in Guilin we took a didi to the ticketing office, from there we were to take bus, one of the craziest bus rides I've ever experienced, often hanging over edge cliffs and the local ethnic groups getting on and off the bus, this.. was for locals. The bus dropped us off at a terminal, where we were given the option of a taxi or a chair lift, we opted chair lift and I'm happy about that decision. You get a 360 degree uninterrupted view of the rice terrace appearing from no where, truly a beautiful sight. At the top you can walk around and look at the sheer vastness of this man made creation, how amazinf rhe irrigation must be, and there's also shops and small food stalls too. The locals are friendly, and it's truly an incredible sight #riceterrace #longjiterrace #guilin #adventures #adventuretrip

Breathtaking views of Longji Terrace Fields

It takes about 2+ hours car ride from Guilin to Longji Terrace Fields. As private cars are not allow in the mountain, one will need to take the shuttle bus which cost RMB25 to the Longji Terrace Fields. The drop off point is at the viewing deck of Nine Dragons and Five Tigers. From here, you will be able to capture the entire terrace fields and the Pingan village on camera. Longji Terrace Fields certainly warrant to be one of the best scenic sights in China. It’s a breathtaking views from here as the fields resemble the vertical stripes of tigers. Hike down to the Pingan Village to catch a glimpse of the Zhuang ethnic minority. In the village, there are several inns or hotels available if one choose to spend the night. Continue to follow the directional signs (available in English) to the Seven Stars Accompany the Moon, a viewing deck to capture another angle of the terrace fields. The weather was gloomy and it started to rain. The cloud slowly drifting in covering the entire terrace fields and mountains creating a mystical picture perfect moments. Definitely worth the ride to Longji Terrace Fields as it is awesome experience. #hiking #terracefields #longji

Cable car

During your visit to Longji rice terrace it is better to take ropeway to the scenic spot than taking back 🚠. One way ticket is 60 RMB and two way is 100 RMB 💴. Climbing down the hill is not that difficult and with 1 and half hour you can reach down. On the way you can also enjoy the closer view of fields and different field view too. #summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Longji Rice Terraces in Guilin were beyond beautiful. I’d never seen rice terraces before so I was grateful when our hotel hooked us up with a great deal. We were travelling from Yangshuo so the ride was about 3 hours one way and 3 hours back....yikes. But I definitely think it was worth it! absolutely stunning!

Lonji rice terraces near Guilin. slow and laborious drive up the mountains but many spectacular sights. a lot of new development going on. maybe losing some of its rustic charm. #tripaway

The Longji Rice Terraces are among the most impressive I have ever seen! Getting here takes you through the mountains, beautiful valleys, and windy roads. The entrance is free, and the view priceless. My tip is to stay at one of the nearby farm home stays, that way you get an authentic experience and support the local community, it’s a combo that makes for an unforgettable trip :) This area of China is also located fairly close to Yangshuo, which is a town surrounded by many rivers and karst mountains that seem out of this world, and surely are among my top 3 favorite landscapes that I got to see in China. Have you been? If so, what are some of your favorite places? I would love to know! #longji #china #explore

The best season is the irrigation in May and the season before harvest in September-October. about traffic -Longji special line car 1 departure point 1: Xiangjiang Hotel near Guilin Station (price 25 yuan) 2 departure point 2: Guilin North Station Next to the bus station (fare 40 yuan) 3 departure point three: Guilin West Station (fare 40 yuan) large holidays may increase a little price. Near the visitor center of Longji, there will be diversion, and tourists who live in Dazhai/Xiaozhai will be diverted here. The cost of the diverted shuttle bus is included in the special line. If you do not inform the driver of the arrival of the stockade in advance, you may be taken as a day trip to the visitor center to take the cable car, you have to carpool to the stockade. It should be noted that it is recommended to book the hotel in advance, consult the hotel arrival method, let the hotel help the car, cheaper than the Internet, and will tell you the most accurate way to get there, do not take the road to spend money. About the ticket 80 yuan/person, the on-site ticket purchase is the same as the online price. The Longji terraces can be divided into four concentrated villages: Xiaozhai Hongyao terraced fields, Jinkeng Hongyao terraced fields (Dazhai), Pingan Zhuang terraces, and Longji ancient Zhuangzhai terraces.

About accommodation : No.1 is suitable for watching the sunrise near Taitai, so it is recommended to stay here as much as possible. Recommend two hotels, respectively: (preferred hotel, you can watch the sunrise directly in the landscape room, there is no cover, whether it is at the hotel or the distance to the various landscape stations, Very suitable) panoramic floor (the view is superb, but the way of arrival is extremely painful, because you have to climb to the highest landscape station, and carry luggage, especially to other viewing platforms.) Food recommendation bamboo rice cooker and bamboo tube chicken, Lo Han Guo water.

Longji rice terraces, like a fairyland that God has left in the world, is charming all year round, and it is suitable when it comes. Spring has the beauty of spring, and summer has the charm of summer. When the rice is harvested in winter and snowing in winter, it is like a paradise.

Drive to the ticket office, buy one ticket and you can see three pits! We went to ✨Jinpitazhai. It takes about 50 minutes to drive up, the mountain road is rugged, non-old drivers should be cautious! 2. After buying the ticket, we hired an aunt (local guide) to lead the way, 100 yuan, the aunt sat in the car and gave directions. Then when we arrived, the aunt also introduced me to where their home was, haha so cute. After arriving, the aunt almost got off work and walked home. The car drove to the top of the rice terraces, it's quite comfortable without much walking. It's not the mountain top where the cable car is, the cable car mountain top is on the opposite side, I feel it's almost the same from either side. (You can also take the cable car for 100 yuan round trip, but you need to time it, so we chose to drive up ourselves) If you have enough time, you can climb more, we just took photos and looked around in one place and left, limited physical strength. （Actually, there are three ways to get to the top, 1⃣️ Drive and ask an aunt to lead the way. Suitable for self-driving, and it's convenient to return. 2⃣️ Take a private car to the top of the mountain, including round trip. 3⃣️ Cable car 100 yuan round trip, you can also see the scenery from the air, which is very beautiful）
