During the sunrise, the scenery with changeable color reflected in the water, spectacular terraces and villages appearing indistinctly is so fantastic that it seems as if you are in a fairyland.
The best season to visit Honghe Hani Rice Terraces is from November to next April because the terraces are in irrigation period at that time. After the autumn harvest, the rice paddies will be filled with water. During this period, the morning glow and sunset glow reflect on the water and the rice terraces turn into golden. However, different season have different charm in Duoyishu Rice Terraces.
