Not knowing how tough the climb was going to be - we were initially ambivalent as mid 50ers in good shape. However we realized this was not a major concern when we saw elderly individuals with canes who had reached the top! Steps were uneven in places but a handrail was available for 90% of the way. All of this was a moot point when you reach the summit platform and see the incredible view of the Li River and the numerous mountain peaks - just spectacular! Don’t miss it!

We watched the Dance Show at Guilin Romance Park and it was really amazing. The visuals were just stunning! I also loved the fact that the show really takes advantage of the whole arena, at times you end up turning around or looking up for some of the experiences. Highly recommend!

Although I live far away from Guangxi province as soon as I have the opportunity I will go back to Longji rice terraces again. It's truly beautiful and I would like to be there in October when their color turns into yellow. I have read other tripadvisor users' feedback. I have nothing more to say. They have already stressed how beautiful this place is and what kind of path it is necessary to follow...basically the one that leads from one sightseeing platform to the other. I feel the need instead to give you some useful information in order to make the most of your visit especially if you are Guilin based. Longji terraces are rather far from the city of Guilin and there is no direct bus to Longji. Aware of this I decided to wake up at around seven so to catch one of the earliest buses to Longsheng county. The buses leave from Guilin Qintan Bus station 桂林琴谭客运站. The trip to Longsheng takes more than one hour. Then you have to catch a bus heading for Ping An. The ticket inspector who will be on the bus, will help you catch the bus heading for Ping An with no need of wasting time at Longsheng bus station. After getting on the second bus another sixty minutes is needed but at least you will be dropped off at the entrance of the scenic area. Waking up early is necessary also because once your visit is over you have to return to Guilin. Unfortunately from Ping An to Longsheng there are only three buses...at 1PM, at 3 PM and 5PM. I took the one leaving at 3PM as my concern was to be unable to catch the connecting bus from Longsheng to Guilin. If you want to enjoy 4/5 full hours in Longji it is really suggested leaving Guilin early in the morning. Qintan Bus station is not in the city center. It's in the suburbs of Guilin. It is understood Guilin is not Shanghai but from the city center to the bus station it will take another half an hour at least. The whole round trip from the city center of Guilin to Longji and back takes around 5/6 hours. If I were you, I would spend a night in the nearby village of Huangluo (around 5 kilometers from Longji) so to have plenty of time to visit the rice terraces without feeling any time pressure. This village is an attraction in itself because of the local women who let their hair grow just Rapunzel used to do.

Get to the scenic area of the Yulong river, hire bicycles or e-bikes or simply hike the area and enjoy great views along this river at the base of a range of limestone karsts. there are lovely little surprises along the way, in the form of local village life, excellent little hotels, boutique and rustic country style, and little coffee shops that will delight you with their menu choices.

Visited Qingxiu Mountain during winter and it was awesome! The park is well managed with beautiful landscaping and many photo points. Beyond that, it is simply a great place for a workout, be it a jog, brisk walk or simply yoga by the lake. The entire area is so huge that I did not manage to finish it and I'll definitely be back again to explore more! Definitely a great place to relax, exercise, breathe the fresh air and be at peace with nature.
10. Ping'an Village

Reviewed By Clubess1 - Lido Beach, United States
Planning to hike/walk from Ping'an Village to Longji, we drove up here from Guilin and the scenery and sites got better and better as we drew closer and closer to our starting point in Ping'an, starting with the winding river on the valley floor to the serpentine road rising up to the hilly village. There was so much of interest to see that it was hard to concentrate on the sometimes stony pathway. There are many walking paths, steps, etc. in and around Ping'an to choose from, all lined with food stalls, chickens, ducks rinsing off in rivulets of mountain water, souvenir sellers, local folks in traditional clothing, the ubiquitous and golden rice terraces being readied for harvesting and that go on and on, ancestors' hillside headstones being taken over by weeds, Zhuang and Yao vendors hawking their wares (some handcrafted, some generic), folks selling rice dishes stuffed into the hollows of grilled, smoking hot bamboo poles, women in their uniquely Zhuang colorful hats carrying woven baskets on their backs, a brand-spanking new wooden viewing pagoda at the highest point (and thus, a gorgeous view of the rolling hills and valleys below), women with their sturdy ponies schlepping food and more from place to place, open fires roasting sweet potatoes and eggs, and, at the Longji end, the adorable and rustic wooden cut-out figures that tell the story of the unchanging Zhuang life, multi-storied, cheek-by-jowl, ancient wooden homes and a wonderful, wonderful meal at the Guzhuang Renjia Restaurant (AKA Ancient Longji Zhuang Peoples' restaurant...am hoping to find a way to review this no-address restaurant on TA). The hike is not hard, there is SO much to see, so much color, so many interesting people who you pass by; make sure to go up every set of steps so you can experience every sight, every valley view, eat a good, local meal, support the Zhuang and Yao minority peoples' lives and you will gain as much as you give (and feel oh, so tired and happy by the end)
