hey everyone, here are our pictures from the rice terraces, they are said to be the oldest rice terraces in the world (over 650 years). We were pretty lucky with our weather, it was cloudy, but not as foggy as what we heard from other travelers. We had a great day and enjoyed the small villages and mountains surrounding the Terraces! 😊 Hope you enjoy! Randi and Quinn... Read Full Entry

Rice Terraces...
Great Pics! :) I live and work in China and had visited Guilin only once but did not have the chance to go to the terraces. It would have been nice. However these terraces being 650 years old is not the oldest in the world. The Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines is over 2000 years old and still in use, not sure whether it holds the record but it sure is not Long Ji Rice Terraces. That of course does not diminish the charm of the Chinese counterpart. Cheers! Potsky
