The Longsheng Rice Terraces (), also called the Longji Rice Terraces (), are located in Longsheng County, about from Guilin, Guangxi, China. The terraced fields are built along the slope winding from the riverside up to the mountain top, between 600 m to 800 m above sea level. A coiling terrace line that starts from the mountain foot up to the mountain top divides the mountain into layers of water in spring, layers of green rice shoots in summer, layers of rice in fall, and layers of frost in winter. The terraced fields were mostly built about 650 years ago. Longji (Dragon's Backbone) Terraced Rice Fields received their name because the rice terraces resemble a dragon's scales, while the summit of the mountain range looks like the backbone of the dragon. In early June, water is pumped over the rice paddies and young plants are transferred to the main terraces. ==Gallery== File:1 da zhai zhuang people longsheng rice terrace 2011.jpg|Dazhai rice terrace File:1 longsheng ping an rice terrace 2011.jpg|Ping'an as seen from ''Jiu long wu hu'' Image:Longji_terrace_-_03.JPG|Longsheng rice terrace File:Longji Terraces.JPG|Longji terraces 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Longsheng Rice Terrace」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
