Longji is famous for the number of terraces fields built along the slope from the riverside up to the mountain top. The fields set among the Zhuang and Yao villages offering stunning view all year around whenever the fields filled with water, the rice grows and matures, snowing in winter.

In the most visited Ping’an village, visitors also have chances to pay home visit and have close touch to local life.
