Yuanyang Rice Terraces~~ A'kouzhe Scenic Area

The Yuanyang Rice Terraces of A'kouzhe are a very distinctive terraced field, where 'A'kouzhe' means 'a lucky small place'. With a history of more than 160 years, the A'kouzhe village is situated at an altitude of over 1800 meters, shrouded in mist throughout the year. Below the village are terraced fields cascading down the mountainside, which tourists like to call 'the terraced fields above the clouds'. A'kouzhe village is one of the five key villages for the heritage application of the Hani Rice Terraces. The village has more than 60 thatched-roof mushroom houses, which experts consider to be the best-preserved traditional Hani architectural complex in Yuanyang County.
