Rice terraces and ethnic minorities
A billowing green blanket of magnificent rice terraces covers the mountains of Longsheng County,a natural work of art created by many generations since the Yuan Dynasty. Visit the Dragon's Backbone in May, when the terraces are submerged and the rolling landscape turns into a shimmering mirror or in October when nature turns gold. Over the carved hiking trails you make the most beautiful hikes, interspersed with moments of relaxation in the numerous mineral-rich hot springs that the area is rich in.
In Longsheng live additionally many ethnic groups with each their own customs and culture. In the Zhuang, Miao, Yao and Dong villages you will get acquainted with the typical cuisine, architecture, costumes, folk song and dance of each tribe. Let the home-brewed rice wine taste you!
