When it comes to Longsheng in Guilin City, Guangxi, what immediately reminds people of is the Longji Terrace. That's right! Anyone who travels to Longsheng does not visit the Longji Terrace, it will be a great regret in life. "The two scenes of Ping 'an are majestic, with five tigers running around Cuifeng, nine ridges and dragons playing in the water, and seven stars accompanying the moon in the picture." This poem describes the scenery of the Longji Terrace. If you have the opportunity to see the changes of the Longji Terrace deep in the Longsheng Mountains all year round, it will be a beautiful event in life and you will have no regrets in your life!

The majestic Longji Terrace is 27 kilometers away from Longsheng County and only 103 kilometers away from Guilin City. The entire scenic area has a total area of more than 66 square kilometers. The terraces are distributed between 300 and 1100 meters above sea level, and most of the slopes are between 26 and 35 degrees. The maximum slope is as high as more than 50 degrees. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the hills are like snails and the mountains are like towers, stacked on top of each other, with scattered heights. Viewed from a high place, the graceful curves of the terraces are one by one, parallel or intersecting, winding like spring snails and shrouded in mist like cloud towers, showing the breathtaking beauty of the curves. Its lines are smooth and flowing, elegant and soft; its scale is majestic and magnificent, and it has the reputation of "the crown of the terraced fields in the world".

The Longji Terrace is located in Heping Township, Longsheng Autonomous County, Guilin City. It is a world-famous beautiful landscape that combines nature and humanity. Walking deep into the mountains of Longsheng, the beauty of the Longji Terrace is displayed one by one in front of people. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the elevations of tens of meters, hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters are stacked and winding, like ladders. What winds between the mountains are the layers of layers, beautiful and elegant farm terraces.

Those lines are flowing and flowing, elegant and soft; they are majestic and magnificent in scale and very grand in momentum. These terraces, large and small, can reach more than 150 steps from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, just as a folk song describes: "Ma Guai jumps 340 yuan per jump, but it is hard to see if you look down." Longsheng Longji Terrace is a place where the people of all ethnic groups of Zhuang, Yao and Han ethnic groups in Longji 13 villages have used their hard work and wisdom to dig, carry and build this grass-grown, scattered, and sloping mountains have been transformed into thousands of acres of fertile farmland.

The Longji Terrace was built in the Yuan Dynasty and completed in the early Qing Dynasty. It has a history of more than 650 years. The ancestors who carved mountains and built fields in Longji did not expect that the terraces they built with blood, sweat and life would turn into such a charming and elegant curved world. Over the long years, people's strong will to survive in nature, the wisdom and strength they show in understanding nature and building their homes, have been fully reflected here.

Terrace fields are surrounded by mountain beams; mountain villages pause on the curve of the terraces, making the originally very heavy mountains look very dynamic. Because the mountains are high, the water temperature is low and the sunshine is short, the Longji Terrace Field only grows one season of rice a year, and because the temperature difference between morning and evening is large and the rice growth cycle is long. The rice produced by Longji not only tastes good, but is also rich in nutrients. It is an excellent and excellent grain in northern Guangxi. The cultivation of terraces is much more difficult than the cultivation of ordinary fields, because the fields vary in size and height, and cattle cannot be used in many places. In many cases, the tidying and cultivation of the fields are carried out entirely by manpower.

In spring, abundant rainfall fills layers of terraces with water. Under the shining sun, the messy terraces are cleared away, making them particularly beautiful. Each terraced field shines like a mirror embedded in the mountains, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, the village of shanzhai, and on the trail, a group of Zhuang and Yao women wear red clothes and blue skirts, adding a lot of poetic feelings to the deepening terraces. The hardships and joys of labor continue day by day in the bustle of these terraces. On the wooden floors and among the green tiles, wisps of cooking smoke exude the flavor of last year's cured meat, and the entire terraced field is filled with fragrance.

Guilin Longsheng has scenery all year round, and the scenery in the four seasons is diverse and has its own merits. If Longsheng's spring gives people a kind of vitality, then Longsheng's summer is like a passionate girl. In summer, the dragon's spine is covered with lush forests and bamboo trees. From under the Diaojiao Tower, streams of clear springs flow out from the middle of the village, and golden waves shining with the sun flow to the gradually deepening Tianyuan. Layers of green waves, carrying waves of rice flowers, roll in the fields, indicating that another harvest festival is no longer far away.

Along the mountain stream, washing clothes and vegetables is also a scenery. If you catch up with the children of the Yao family dressing by the stream, it will be a blessing for the eyes. The Zhuang Yao daughters in the village have learned needlework since childhood. They are all masters of needlework. Their clothes and wear are woven by themselves. Their hair has been nourished and cared for by glutinous rice water since childhood. The hair is thick, black, long and bright. The shorter ones are about one meter and the longer ones are about two and a half meters. When they washed up collectively by the creek, the beauty was unseen anywhere.

Autumn is the most beautiful season on Dragon's spine. It is not only the harvest season of the year, but the endless golden rice fields alone are pleasing to the eye. There is a saying that describes it well: "Dragons win over golden autumn, and ears of rice sink into the sky, like jade on top of a golden tower." Autumn is here. This is the most beautiful season for Longji. Waves of mountain winds blow from the mountain pass, golden rice waves set off the blue sky and white clouds. The white turbans of the Zhuang family's sister and the red clothes of the Yao village's sister-in-law flash in every terraced field. It is the beautiful scenery of a bumper harvest and the joy of a bumper harvest. On the terraces and under the eaves of every household, strings of golden corn and red peppers exude a fragrance, attracting groups of tourists to use this as a background and leave them with another beautiful impression of Longji. In the joy of simplicity, thickness and prosperity of terraces and mountain villages, people enjoy the joy of labor and the rewards of nature.

Although Guilin Longsheng is located in southern China, the Longji terraces deep in Longsheng are a northern scenery rare in the south in winter. The dragon's spine in winter is a different scene. Whenever snow falls, Tianyuan, Shanzhai, woods, and trails all become a silver world. The kind of freshness, calm, and purity are something we will never experience in the noisy urban area. "The silver snake in the field dances, the original wax elephant". In the mountains and rivers of the south, what you see is the scenery of the north. At this time, in addition to normal labor, the people of all ethnic groups of Zhuang, Yao and Han who had worked hard for a year were more concentrated around the fire pond with strings of pork and mutton hanging, sipping sweet homemade Longji Water Wine, and drinking The fragrant oil tea gave you a pleasant life.

In today's Longji Thirteen Villages, almost every family has set up hostels, and everyone has become a manager and guide. Not only has the bumper harvest of terraces brought Longji a good place to have enough food and clothing, but also sightseeing and folk customs have brought Longji more wealth."Facing the loess and back to the sky" is no longer a portrayal of Longji people. The scene of "singing songs and going down the towers every night" is no longer unfamiliar here. Together with Longsheng's strong ethnic customs and Longsheng Hot Spring, the first spring in South China, 60 kilometers away, the Longji Terrace forms the most beautiful scenery in Longsheng, making it an ideal place for people to relax and vacation.

Guilin Longsheng Longji Terrace has moved from being closed and poor during farming to being open, healthy, prosperous and harmonious. Terrace fields are everywhere, but such large-scale concentrations as Longji Terrace are rare. Therefore, every tourist who sees this scenery will be deeply shocked! This is a kind of shock that is difficult to express in words, a kind of shock caused by the majesty of nature and the greatness of man!
