Final Verdict: Best Time To Visit
Ultimately, a number of different factors need to be taken into consideration when deciding the best time to visit. Generally, the ‘golden’ period from early September until October is commonly referred to as the best time to visit the Longji Rice Terraces. The ‘golden’ rice is often harvested in early October, although the specific date depends upon the season (it can be delayed a few weeks). In early October (first week of the month), there is a National Holiday in China, meaning the entire Guilin area, including the Longji Rice Terraces, becomes inundated with domestic tourists.
Therefore, we strongly recommend not visiting during this particular week as visitors will face large traffic jams and congestion in the area. Anytime from early until mid September would be the best time to visit. However, in reality each season offers different views and experiences meaning the Longji Rice Terraces are a great place to visit at any time during the year!
