Guilin: Longji Terraces, Yao Village, & Jinkeng Group Tour｜China

Begin your adventure with a visit to the Longji Terraces, a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Site. Known as "the Crown of Terraces in the World," these terraces stretch from the mountain foot to the top, offering breathtaking views in every season. Walk along the fields to experience the traditional farming culture or climb high to capture mist-shrouded scenery.

Next, head to Huangluo Yao Village, the only Yao village in Longji’s Thirteen Villages. Surrounded by green mountains and stilted houses, this village is famous for its Red Yao culture. Discover the thousand-year-old long hair tradition, where Red Yao women only cut their hair once at 18, coiling it on their heads for good luck.

Finally, explore Jinkeng Dazhai, the grandest part of the Longji Terraces. Known for its dragon-like golden terraces, this area offers three unique viewing platforms. Hike to Xishan Shaole for sunrise and a sea of clouds, walk the gentle road to Qianceng Tianti, or take a cable car to Jinfoding for a stunning sunset. Along the way, taste Yao delicacies, stay in terraced-view homestays, and immerse yourself in the peaceful pastoral life.
