Nestled in the picturesque region of Guilin, China, the Longji Rice Terraces is a captivating landscape that has been sculpted by human hands for over 650 years. Also known as the "Dragon's Backbone Rice Terraces”, this incredible feat of agricultural engineering spans across vast hills and valleys, creating a mesmerizing sight that seems almost otherworldly.
The terraced fields get their name from their appearance, resembling dragon scales or the ridges on a dragon's back. With every step you take along the winding paths, you'll be greeted with awe-inspiring views of cascading rice paddies stretching as far as the eye can see. The lush greenery changes its hues with each passing season - vibrant emerald during spring and summer, golden yellow in autumn, and occasionally blanketed in a serene layer of snow during winter.
What makes these terraces truly remarkable is not just their scenic beauty but also their incredible functionality. The local Yao and Zhuang ethnic minority communities have ingeniously designed an irrigation system that enables water to flow down from one terrace to another through an intricate network of channels. It's an ingenious example of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature.
As you wander through this living testament to human ingenuity, you'll have countless opportunities to immerse yourself in authentic cultural experiences too. Interact with friendly locals dressed in colorful traditional attire who are more than happy to share stories about their heritage and way of life.
Whether you're strolling amidst the vibrant green fields during springtime or capturing stunning aerial shots using your drone at sunset, there's no denying that Longji Rice Terraces is a photographer's paradise waiting to be explored. So grab your camera gear or unleash your drone for an experience like no other!

After watching your other Longji video I had to watch this one. LOL. Great footage. Our trip to Longji was in fall, where all the terraces were yellow, right before harvest.
