Located at the confluence of the Li River and Taohua River in downtown Guilin, Elephant Trunk Hill (Xiangbishan) is the city's iconic symbol. This 360-million-year-old karst formation looks exactly like a giant elephant dipping its trunk into the water.
Between its"Trunk" and "Legs" lies Water Moon Cave, a natural arch that creates the magical"Two Moons"scene—one moon in the sky, one reflected in the water. Atop the hill stands the ancient Puxian Pagoda. Admired by poets for over a millennium, this breathtaking landscape captures Guilin's timeless beauty.
