Dazhai Dragon's Den Hostel In Rice Terraces
Longsheng, China | Youth HostelsStarting at $6 per person
Top Picks near Longsheng, China (See All)
Wake up to the smell of unadulterated fresh air, the whimsical women tending their fields from below, and the billowing misty fog enveloping the hillsides. Be taken away by this marvelling masterpiece as the lines of the terraces draw themselves out into the distance.
The seasonal changes rotate through different aspects of the terraces' natural beauty. In summer, the hillsides are a vibrant green with the appearance of new rice shoots. During fall, the green color of summer gives way to a stunning golden hue - turning the entire landscape into a warm, meditative series of rolling hills. Spring features the terraces as stacked bodies of water, wet from the rains late into the year. Winter in Dazhai is similarly picturesque with the terraces glazing over with ice.
Dragon's Den Hostel offers visitors an opportunity to experience a segment of China far distinct from that of the bustling city centers. Our hostel rests high above the vast rice terraces and offers spectacular and incomparable views.
We seek to provide visitors with an affordable and enjoyable stay with amenities and information to enhance each individual's experience of the stunning landscapes and the community.
Directions from Guilin to Dazhai Village:
The best method to get to Dragon's Den is to stay a night in Guilin city and take the Dazhai Village bus at 8:30AM from the train station. We can easily reserve a seat for you on the bus to Dazhai Village. It will take you directly to the entrance, where you will then make your way up through to Tiantouzhai Village.
Directions from Dazhai Village entrance to Dragon's Den:
We are located in the very scenic Tiantouzhai Village, a 40 minute hike from the base of Dazhai Village. Pay close attention to the signs leading up to Tiantouzhai Village. You may be required to ask local villagers on how to get to Tiantouzhai as there are very few signage. We are also enroute to Scenic Site #2 (Music From Paradise) so keep an eye for that sign as well. You will eventually pass the main public restroom in Tiantouzhai. We are just up ahead with our HI Hostel sign hanging over the path. All signs will be in both English and Chinese.
