Although rice terraces wind their way around mountains throughout China, the Longji Rice Terraces are considered to be the most magnificent of them all.

虽然中国各地的水稻梯田蜿蜒在群山之中,但龙脊水稻梯田被认为是其中最壮丽的。

They are located in the Multinational Autonomous County of Longsheng, about 100 kilometers outside of Guilin, and are sometimes referred to as the Longsheng Rice Terraces.

它们位于桂林市外约 100 公里的龙胜各族自治县,有时被称为龙胜梯田。

The word "longji" means "dragon's backbone" and these rice terraces earned their unusual name because the terraced fields climbing up the mountain look like dragons' scales while the summit of the mountain range resembles a dragon's backbone.

“龙脊”一词的意思是“龙的脊梁”,这些水稻梯田之所以有这个不寻常的名字,是因为这些向山上蔓延的梯田看起来像龙的鳞片,而山脉的顶峰像龙的脊梁。

This gives you an idea as to the sheer scale of these rice terraces.

让你对这些水稻梯田的巨大规模有一个大概的了解。

These terraced fields were all man-made and were first built during the Yuan Dynasty, although many of them weren't completed until the Qing Dynasty.

这些梯田都是人造的,始建于元朝,尽管其中许多梯田直到清朝才完工。

Built over 650 years ago by the Zhuang and Yao ethnic minorities, the majority of them are still in use today.

其中大部分是壮族、瑶族在 650多年前建造的,至今仍在使用。

They stretch from the riverside right to the summit of the mountain, ranging from 300 meters to 800 meters above sea level.

它们从河边一直延伸到山顶,海拔在 300 米到 800 米之间。

In some cases, the terraced fields reach heights of approximately 1,100 meters above sea level. They cover a huge area of 66 square kilometers.

在某些情况下,梯田的高度可达海拔约 1100 米。它们占地 66 平方公里。

The rice terraces were initially designed to make use of land that was previously thought too difficult to plough.

梯田最初的设计是为了利用以前被认为太难耕种的土地。

By flattening small surfaces of the mountain, farmers were able to plough them and via a particularly creative irrigation system, pump water into the ploughed fields so that rice could be grown there.

水稻梯田最初的设计是为了利用以前被认为难以耕种的土地。通过平整山的小块表面,农民就可以耕地,并通过一种特别有创意的灌溉系统把水抽到犁过的田地里,便可以在那里种植水稻了。

This method is still widely used by farmers to this day.

这种方法至今仍被农民广泛使用。
