Longzhou (龙州; Lóngzhōu) is a rural town in Central Guangxi.
From the travel guide. Select a place for details, a map and what is nearby.
Excellent views of the town and surrounding countryside from this 'Little Great Wall' fort. On your way up the steep hill, you will also see a large, but very badly vandalised, temple in a cave.
独山; Dushan
Hill overlooking the town.
While Longzhou is now a sleepy town it has had quite a history. The Longzhou museum has many artifacts and paintings from the Longzhou Rebellion, which was led by Deng Xiaoping. Some of the staff speak English and may be your best bet for tourist information. A Chinese language leaflet available here includes a tiny map - infuriatingly difficult to use but there does not appear to be any other maps available.
A museum focused on Ho Chi Minh's time in Longzhou. Includes some interesting photographs but, if you do not read Chinese or Vietnamese, there is little to learn here.
Worth seeing only if you have an interest in decay, litter and stagnant water.
One of the few remaining remnants of Longzhou's colonial architecture.
The nicest hotel in town.
By train
Longzhou has a station on the Nanning-Pingxiang high-speed railway. Trains from Nanning take about one and a half hours to reach Longzhou. From Chongzuo, the journey time is just 25 minutes.
The city is small enough to walk most places. Three wheeled taxis are available and cost ¥2-3 to get anywhere in the town.
