Introduction to Yuanyang Rice Terraces
Yuanyang Rice Terraces are located in Honghe Hani & Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. This area is the core area of the entire Honghe Hani Rice Terraces. The scenic area mainly includes three scenic spots: Bada Scenic Spot, Tiger Mouth Scenic Spot, and Duoyishu Scenic Spot. There are also some less developed niche scenic spots. The Hani Rice Terraces have been listed as a World Heritage Site. The best time to visit here is during the spring and autumn seasons, especially in autumn and winter when the layered water reflects the white clouds, blue sky, trees, and mountains, like a broken colored mirror. The beautiful curves of the terraces are both grand and elegant, making the whole world seem brighter.
Best Time to Visit
The best time to shoot the terraces is from November to April, with the most beautiful scenery in January and February. There are often seas of clouds around the Chinese New Year, and around the Lantern Festival, wild cherry blossoms, wild cottonwood flowers, wild peach blossoms, and pear blossoms are in full bloom, creating a stunning scene.
