Excursion to Longji Rice Terraces & Minority Villages
Dragon's Backbone Rice Terraces
8 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedAn excursion to the rice terraces of Longji awaits you after breakfast. Your tour guide will pick you up from your hotel at 8:00 am. These terraces were first built during the Yuan Dynasty (1271AD to 1368AD) and their construction continued until the early Qing Dynasty (1644AD to 1911AD). The terraces change their appearance according to the season. In spring, when the water is irrigated into the fields, the terraces look like ribbons stretching along the hillside. During summer, it looks like waves of green are rushing down the hills from above. Autumn, the season of harvest, is when the hills look golden brown. And in winter, when it snows, the hills are decked in white. As well as its amazing scenery, Longji is a great destination to experience the culture of China’s ethnic minorities. It is home to Zhuang and Yao ethnic groups. Return back to your hotel in Guilin in the late afternoon after the excursion is over.- AccommodationsOvernight at Bravo Hotel in Guilin, a 4-star hotelFood And DrinksBreakfast
From Guilin cruise Li River down to Yangshuo
Li River
5 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedYour driver will pick you up from the hotel and drive you to a Li River pier after breakfast. The journey takes about 60 minutes. Board a 4-star cruise boat on reaching the pier and sail down the meandering Li River. The journey from Guilin dock to Yangshuo via Yangdi, Jiu Ma and Xingping takes around 4 hours. Li River looks like a jade-green belt winding its way among countless mountains. The sides of the river unwind like a paper scroll, unraveling beautiful scenery as the boat drifts down the river. No wonder people call the river a colorful gallery. No matter how bad or good the weather is, travelers are always in for a surprise during their journey down the river. While a sunny day can mean clear water with countless fishes swimming leisurely beneath you, clouds and mist play hide-and-seek around hills and mountains on a cloudy day. You'll be transferred to your hotel and check in after the boat arrives at Yangshuo pier.Impression Sanjie Liu
