Longji Terraced Field in Longsheng
Longsheng is part of the greater Guilin area. Its main attraction is the Longji rice terraces ( Longji Titian), called Dragon Backbones by the locals. Also of interest are the hot springs and the small mountain villages among the wooded areas of trees and bamboos. Longji Terraced Field is located about 100km northeast of the downtown Guilin, about 2 hours' drive from Guilin. The rice terraces are built into the hillsides. Longji literally means "Dragon's Backbone"in Chinese. There is a group of large-scaled rice terraces built into the hillside. Some of the terraces look like great chains, other look like ribbons as they extend from the foot to the top of the hills. This clever building makes the best use of the limited arable land and water resources in the mountainous area. About 66 square kilometers terraced field gather in southeast of Longsheng. According to the study, the Terraces were first started in the Yuan dynasty and finished in the Qing dynasty by the Zhuang people.
