Welcome to our page. Thanks for checking us out!
We made our way to the world famous Longji Rice Terraces and specifically to the hillside village of Ping'an! We stayed in the local feeling village for 2 nights and thought it would be the perfect way to experience the beauty of the village. We were right and wrong. We spent the 2 days battling the fog and eventually snuck in some beautiful sights. A good trip but we don't recommend visiting in November.

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 Rice Terraces (龙胜梯田) Adventures - Part 2: Hiking from Tiantou to Ping'An
Join us on our adventure to the Longsheng Rice Terraces. After a late breakfast at our hostel we went up to the viewpoint Music from Paradise and enjoyed the magnificent landscape of the rice terraces there. Afterwards we started our hiking trip from there to Ping'An Village which turned out to be at some spots pretty challenging. It was a good 3h walk and the weather was on our side. Worth mentioning might be the arrival at ZhongLiu Village where we were basically chased by local Yao woman who wanted to cook for us at their home, sure for some remuneration.

China Longji Longsheng RiceTerraces Villagers
Ping An, China
Video with images of Ping An a village in Guangxi autonomous region of southern China. The village is situated on a mountain slope at an altitude of one thousand meters. It is enclosed by high mountain ranges. The village has small tracks made of sand and stone staircases up against the mountain which make traffic impossible for modern cars and even bicycles. The houses in the village are built close together. Outside the village they are scattered over the mountain slope. All houses are made of wood. They are built up against the mountain slope on wooden pillars. Some of them are hundreds of years old. The lower part of the house is used to store livestock, timber logs and fire wood. This part of the house is generally enclosed with rocks and stones. The upper part of the house has a veranda and a second floor. This is the part where the villagers actually live. At the front of the house is a large room where they live and work. At the backside of the house is the kitchen where the women prepare the food for their family. The fire in the kitchen keeps the sleeping rooms nearby warm.
Since many centuries Ping An is a village of peasant farmers who engaged in the cultivation of rice, cereals and sweet potatoes. They also grow peppers, garlic, radishes and bamboo as well as cucumbers and tomatoes. The village is frequented by many people of the Yao minority. In origin the Yao are from an area along the Yangtze river in the central south of China. They left the area six hundred years ago when Han Chinese settlers came to the region. The Yao discovered that in and around Ping An there was an abundance of natural water supply up until the mountain top. Many generations have established wet rice terraces on the mountain slopes. They lead the water in bamboo pipes along the terraces. The cultivation of rice is their main source of existence. The terraces have transformed the mountain ridge and for this reason the entire area is called Longsheng or Dragon Backbone. Because the wet rice terraces are up against a steep mountain slope, it not possible to plough the fields by means of an ox cart. Instead the Yao women pull the plough on the rice fields.
The Yao women have long hair. They let it grow until they are adolescent. Then they cut it and use it is as a hairpiece. Once their hair has grown again to full length they weave the piece into the new hair. They wrap their black and shiny hair in a spiral on their head and bind it together with a black turban made of wool or cotton. They tie the turban in various shapes and wear a knot at the front. Despite local variations their dress is different from other people in China. They wear a pink vest with hand woven sleeves which have geometrical designs. The collar is embroidered by hand. Around the waist they wear an embroidered ribbon with silver tresses. They wear a plyfold skirt up until the knees and a black legging. The women prefer silver jewelry. They have silver ear rings which stretch the earlobes and silver bracelets with a design of birds and flowers. Sometimes the men wear silver jewelry as well. In many respects their dress is not different from other people in China. Like many others they prefer a nice shirt and trousers made in a modern factory.
In recent years the old village of Ping An has seen gradual change due to the rise of tourism. Yet the local people still adhere to their traditions. It is one of the attractions for many visitors. Tourism in Ping An is still on a small scale. The Yao women show tourists who happen to pass by how they make up their hair. They have their picture taken in local dress at a picturesque spot on top of a mountain slope with a view on the village below and the rice terraces. But the number of tourists who visit their village grows fast. Many buildings in the village are turned into a guest house or restaurant where local families offer food and lodgings to visitors. Most of these guesthouses are new and have been built in the last few years. The village has no souvenir shops yet, but in small booths near the village the local inhabitants sell their handmade products such as rice wine and embroidery. Some years ago the authorities authorized the construction of a modern motorway to the foot of the mountain and for the ease of the modern tourists they introduced electricity cables to illuminate the small tracks and staircases up the mountain. Now visitors to Ping An even have access to the Internet.
