Photos of China: Longsheng area and Longji rice terraces

This is a collection of photos taken in March 2007 during a three-day private tour with guide and driver in the Guangxi Autonomous Region. Highlights of the tour included the Longji rice terraces built along a hillside and the minority villages in the northern part of the province. As the new rice seedlings are not planted before April, the rice terraces looked brownish rather than green; they turn deep green during late spring and summer.
