Longji Rice Terraces
The Longji Rice Terraces were built by the local Zhuang ethnic group alone. Though there are many large, flat areas in the region, they built terraces on the mountains to have more areas to grow rice. The terraces are cleverly designed, and can wash away the shallow soil. There are hundreds of waterways, along which rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces. Today, local people use modern methods to maintain the terraces, and they attract lots of visitors from all over the country.

3. So why did these people go to so much trouble to turn the entire mountains into terraces Firstly, there are few large, flat areas of land in the region. Building the terraces therefore meant that they could increase the areas in which they could grow rice. Secondly, although the region has plenty of rain, the mountains are steep and the soil is shallow. The flat terraces catch the rainwater and prevent the soil from being washed away.




Terraces mean a lot
Traditions hold much value
New generations continue to use ancient methods

A sample for retelling
The Longji Rice Terraces is worth a visit year-round. It turns silver in spring, green in summer, gold in autumn and white in winter. Located in Guangxi Province, the terraces were built by the local Zhuang and Yao people. Starting from Yuan Dynasty, the work on them was finally completed in the early Qing Dynasty.
For a lack of large flat areas of land, steep mountains and shallow soil, the locals built the terraces, which are cleverly designed and can hold soil, to have more areas to grow rice. There are hundreds of waterways, along which during the rainy season rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces. The sun heats the water and turns it into vapour. This forms clouds from which rain falls down onto the mountain terraces once again.
Today, local people still use the ancient methods to maintain the terraces, which are a great wonder created by people and nature working together, attracting countless visitors.
Why do the local people still keep their traditional way of growing rice
In what other ways do people live in harmony with nature Give examples.
The knowledge and wisdom are passed down through generations of families, and it suits the natural environment.

An irrigation (灌溉) system of wells connected by underground channel used in Xinjiang

Bamboo house of Dai people
Over 2,200 years ago, Chengdu in China was threatened by the frequent floods caused by flooding of the Minjiang River (a tributary of the Yangtze River). Li Bing, a local official of Sichuan Province at that time, together with his son, decided to construct an irrigation system on the Minjiang River to prevent flooding. After a lengthy study and a lot of hard work by the local people, the great Dujiangyan Irrigation System was completed. Since then, the Chengdu Plain has been free of flooding and the people have been living peacefully and affluently.
Dujiangyan Irrigation System is honored as the ‘Treasure of Sichuan’, which still plays a crucial role in draining off floodwater, irrigating farms and providing water resources for more than 50 cities in the province.
Further Reading
Dujiangyan is the oldest and only surviving no-dam irrigation system in the world and a wonder in the development of Chinese science. The project consists of three important parts, namely Yuzui, Feishayan and Baopingkou scientifically designed to automatically control the water flow of the rivers from the mountains to the plains throughout the year.
Flying-Sand Weir (Feishayan)
Bottle-Neck Channel (Baopingkou)
Fish Mouth Levee (Yuzui)
Yuzui, like a big fish lying in the Minjiang River, is a watershed dividing the river into two parts: inner river and outside river. Feisha Yan is a spillway that diverts the sand and stones of the inner river into the outer river. Baoping Kou, like a neck of a bottle, is used to bring water into the inner river from Minjiang. At the same time, Baoping Kou controls the amount of the intake water due to its reasonable location. These three parts interact with each other perfectly to form an effective water conservancy project. During the low-water season, 60% of the Minjiang water is brought into the inner river for irrigation while 40% of the water is drawn into the outside river. The situation is reversed in the flood season ensuring the water supply for irrigation and protection from flooding on the Chengdu Plain.
