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.

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.
