Descrição
Discover Yao and Zhuang heritage on this shared day trip. Visit the Red Yao "Long Hair Village" and explore the 600-year-old Ping'an Zhuang terraces—one of China's most iconic cultural landscapes.
The Longji Rice Terraces are a breathtaking masterpiece where ancient agricultural wisdom meets natural wonder. For over 600 years, the Yao and Zhuang people have hand-carved these steep ridges into cascading layers that resemble the scales of a giant dragon—hence the name "Longji" (Dragon’s Backbone).
This tour immerses you in the traditional heritage and stunning landscapes of these two ethnic groups. We provide a convenient pickup service from central Guilin hotels, ensuring a stress-free start to your adventure.
