2016 China Trip Day 11 in LongSheng Rice Terrace & Elephant Trunk HIll, Guilin, GuangXi, China
The Longsheng Rice Terraces, also called the Longji Rice Terraces, are located in Longsheng County, about 100 kilometres (62 mi) from Guilin, Guangxi, China. The terraced fields are built along the slope winding from the riverside up to the mountain top, between 600 m to 800 m above sea level. A coiling terrace line that starts from the mountain foot up to the mountain top divides the mountain into layers of water in spring, layers of green rice shoots in summer, layers of rice in fall, and layers of frost in winter. The terraced fields were mostly built about 650 years ago. Longji (Dragon's Backbone) Terraced Rice Fields received their name because the rice terraces resemble a dragon's scales, while the summit of the mountain range looks like the backbone of the dragon. In early June, water is pumped over the rice paddies and young plants are transferred to the main terraces.
The Elephant Trunk Hill (Chinese: 象鼻山; pinyin: Xiàngbí Shān) is a hill, landmark and tourist attraction in Guilin, Guangxi, China. It is the symbol of the city of Guilin. It got its name because it looks like an elephant drinking water. The round opening that would be under the elephant’s trunk is known as Water-Moon Cave because at night the reflection of the moon can be seen through the arch and it looks as if it is under the water and floating on the surface of the water at the same time. Elephant Trunk Hill and Water-Moon Cave are located at the confluence of the Taohua River and the Lijiang River

Longsheng (Longji) Rice Terraces - Guangxi, China: What, How and Why to visit it
If you are planning to visit Longsheng (Longji) Rice Terraces, in Guangxi - China, here you’ll find the best tips on things to do in this naturalistic destination, with a sightseeing map (also to download) on the most relevant points of interest to enjoy, so you can easily imagine and organize your trip: WHAT to see, HOW to plan your visit, and WHY to discover Longsheng.
WHAT
First of all, these terraced rice paddies are an incredible work of hydraulic engineering, in harmony with nature. Only in Petra, in Jordan I have seen something similar. This water comes from the mountains, step by step, into these rice fields through countless streams.
HOW
I suggest you to follow a path of about 12 km (3-4 hours walking) from Ping’an to Dazhai, crossing different villages. Once in Dazhai you can easily find a ride by car to go back to Ping’an.
WHY
But why to come here? The reflection of the water, these nature curves and smooth hills. These terraces that cascade down into the valley are a view that you’ll not easily forget!

Hiking up Longsheng Rice Terraces (Longji Dragon's Backbone) in Guilin, China (龙胜梯田 - 龙脊梯田)
Hiking up Longsheng Rice Terraces (Longji Dragon's Backbone) in Guilin, China (龙胜梯田 - 龙脊梯田) 龍勝梯田 Here we are at the Longji Rice Fields which are located just outside of Guilin. We've had such good luck. Check out the weather and the views behind.
So we are hiking up to one of the viewing platforms. This is going to be tough because it's like forty degrees outside and we're been told it'll take 30 minutes to one hour depending on our pace. So I'm trying to stay hydrated. Audrey is going to have to workout today.
Aww It's tired. It's so cute. Hello!

I don't know. Update number two. Still struggling. even sweatier but we're slowly gaining ground.
Watch out! You may die along the way. And there is someone behind you.
Sam over here just met a cat. Meow. Meow. Meow. Meow. Who can meow the loudest?
Well, thankfully we've been training for these steps at our hostel. We're on the fifth floor so we're used to going up and down the stairs everyday. And we tend to forget things which means we have to run up and down multiple times a day. True story.
We just went the wrong way so now we have to go down all of these steps. And back up.
Well, that concludes our sweat fest. I mean trek. It was great I just wish it could have been twenty degrees cooler.
Purrrrr

Thanks for watching!
With a small group, we went to the Longji rice terraces. The village we were staying is called Ping'an. I loved this place, it's so quiet and peaceful. And the weird thing is that people are still working here everyday.
