You can get to the Dragon’s Backbone Rice Terraces from Guilin, via the town of Longsheng. For transportation and accommodation information, see my guide to the terraces.
This is the latest in a series of weekly slideshows spotlighting places I’ve been on my travels, in China and beyond. You can view more of my photos at Picasa and Flickr. This post is part of DeliciousBaby’s Photo Friday, where you can find more great travel photography.
