The forest hillsides surrounding the Longji Rice Terraces form an important part
of the region’s natural environment. These forested slopes help protect water
sources, support local wildlife, and create a scenic backdrop for the rice
terraces below.
Walking near forest hillsides allows travelers to experience cooler
temperatures, shaded paths, and a strong connection to nature. The forests
blend smoothly with terrace farming areas, showing how human activity and
natural landscapes coexist.
For travelers, forest hillsides offer quiet spaces for reflection, short nature
walks, and a deeper appreciation of the ecological balance in the Longji region.
