Guilin as a provincial capital and Longsheng as a town both belong to Guangxi province, and the distance from Guilin to Longsheng is about 110 kilometers (69 miles) in all. Since Longsheng is in the mountainous area, the transportation is limited. For no railway station in Longsheng, the best way to travel between the two cities is to take long-distance bus, which takes 1.5 – 2 hours and CNY 37-60. Taking a taxi is much more convenient for 3.5 hours, but the price is correspondingly higher as CNY 250 – 400. Inside the Longji Terraces, traveling by foot is more popular there that one can appreciate the beautiful and unique scenery on the way.
