In the morning, I embarked on a journey to Longji Terraces with anticipation. Along the way, the scenery outside the car window gradually changed from the hustle and bustle of the city to the tranquility of the countryside, and my mood became relaxed. When we arrived at Longji Terraces, the sun was shining. Standing at the foot of the mountain, looking up, the terraces are stacked layer by layer, like waves of the earth, extending from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, which is magnificent. The sun shines on the terraces, sparkling, as if covering the earth with a layer of golden gauze. Climbing up the mountain road, you can feel the magic of nature with every step. The lines of the terraces are beautiful and smooth, like a scroll carefully drawn by nature. On the ridges, you can occasionally see hardworking farmers working, who are integrated with the terraces, forming a vivid pastoral landscape. Climbing to the top of the mountain, overlooking the entire terrace, the view is suddenly clear. The mountains in the distance are undulating, surrounded by clouds and mist, and the terraces are looming in the clouds and mist, like a fairyland. The breeze blew, and the rice ears swayed gently, making a rustling sound, as if telling an ancient legend. The beauty of Longji Terraces lies not only in its magnificence, but also in the farming wisdom and cultural heritage it contains. This trip made me deeply feel the magic of nature and the wisdom of mankind, which made me unforgettable for a long time.

Aside from October, after the harvest, and the first few months of spring, which are not recommended, other time periods offer their own unique beauty. However, be aware that the summer sun can be quite hot, requiring a high level of physical stamina. In early spring, before planting rice, you can enjoy the paddy fields. In early summer, the fragrant rice flowers fill the air. In summer, the vast greenery of the fields and in autumn, the golden expanse of the mountains are all worthwhile.

It is still a long way from downtown Guilin. You have to take a long car ride and climb a mountain to reach the top of the hill. On the way, you will pass by local houses with ethnic characteristics. The high stilt style, the first floor is for raising livestock, and the second floor and above are for living. Going up the mountain is to see the terraced fields and the famous seven stars in a row. There are also hospitable ethnic minorities performing shows such as toasting and robbing the bride. Of course, as usual, they will warmly invite tourists to participate in the show and have fun together.

The Golden Buddha Peak of Longji Terraces is the highest point. You can watch the sunset and sunrise there. It takes more than an hour to walk there. It would be more convenient to take the cable car. There are also homestays there, but they are not so convenient. You can choose whether to stay there based on your needs.
