Longji Terraced Fields, Longsheng, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China

Longji, or Dragon's Back, is located to the northwest of Guilin City. The terraced fields are distributed on the slopes on both sides of a ten-mile-long valley. The Zhuang and Yao people have lived here for generations and are engaged in rice cultivation. This area was developed as a scenic area after 2000, and is now a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) site.

My visits to Longji were in July 2016 and July 2018. All four major villages in Longji were investigated. Tourism development has been mature in this area. Zhuang people live in Ping An and Guzhuang village. The Zhuang live in Dazhai and Xiaozhai. 

Some photos that I took in the field are shown in this gallery.
