Longsheng & Longji in Guilin, China
In Longsheng County of Guilin, a area is known as Longji, which means the dragon's backbone in Chinese. It is an area where the entire mountain range is covered with terraced rice fields. They were built over more than a thousand years, which are not only a faming miracle for creativity and scale, but also exceptionally beautiful and different during the four seasons. Scattered across the rice fields are ethnic minority villages. It is unique that so many different minority groups live in the same area in harmony and have yet maintained their own unique traditions.
