A vacation among the rice terraces of Ping’An 平安
A beautiful film ... The LongSheng (Dragon's Backbone) rice terraces 龙胜梯田 cover an area of around 65 square kilometers (about 16,000 acres) in GuangXi province. Construction of the terraces began during the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368), most extensively around 500 years ago during the Ming dynasty, and continues today.

The most famous of the rice terrace areas here are the Ping'An and JinKeng rice terraces.

This area is also noted for its LongJi tea and wine. Best time to visit : May to mid-October (ideally, June to September).
