Guilin Longji Scenic Area + Huangluo Yao Village One-Day Tour

Take a vehicle to one of the world's most beautiful terraced field groups---the [Longji Rice Terraces Scenic Area] (approx. 2 hours). The terrace group has numerous streams, abundant water sources, and evergreen vegetation on the mountains throughout the year. The houses in the stockaded village are uniformly stilted buildings (diaojiaolou). The orderly villages blend harmoniously with the mountains, presenting a simple, elegant, and rustic feeling of returning to nature. The terraced fields are neat and orderly with rich and colorful lines. The shapes of the lines are mainly curves, which endow people with a dynamic beauty. Especially those long curves and wavy lines make people imagine that these terraced fields are like colorful ribbons floating down from the sky;

• Huangluo Yao Village: Known as the "First Long Hair Village in the World", it is famous for its unique custom of "wearing hair like a straw hat". The Red Yao is a branch of the Yao ethnic group. Keeping long hair is their traditional custom, symbolizing longevity and wealth. Surrounded by mountains and rivers, the crystal-clear green water surface is like a mirror, reflecting the tranquility and beauty of the Yao village.

Main viewing platforms of Jinkeng Terraced Fields: Dajie Thousand-Layer Ladder Terraced Fields and Jinfoding Terraced Fields. At the Dajie Thousand-Layer Ladder, you can see layers of terraced fields rising straight into the clouds like stairs, just like a ladder to heaven. The Jinfoding Terraced Fields wind layer upon layer along the mountain momentum, with intertwined ridges naturally forming the "Phoenix Turning Back" landscape, making it a must-visit spot for photography enthusiasts.

Ping'anzhai Terraced Fields: Ping'an Zhuang Village was built in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. It is the core village for sightseeing in the Longji Scenic Area. It retains unique Zhuang ethnic costumes and simple living customs. Surrounded by terraced fields and ecological forests, the environment is elegant and the climate is mild all year round. In spring, the water glistens like a mirror; at summer solstice, the green rice shoots roll like emerald waves; at autumn harvest, golden rice ears pave the ground; and in winter storage, snow covers the silver chains winding around the mountains. The changing scenery throughout the seasons is breathtaking.
