Guilin is famous in the world for its green hills, clear water, fantastic caves and spectacular rocks. It has typical karst topography. Scientists believe that Guilin was an ocean between 370-325 million years ago. Between 200-180 million years ago, because of changes in the earth's crust, the bottom of the ocean rose up and became land. Over subsequent centuries, the erosion effect gave rise to a myriad of eerie-looking peaks, underground rivers and caves.The hills and pinnacles in Guilin, gifted by nature, rise sharply from the ground in many different shapes.Guilin has a subtropical monsoon climate with an annual temperature of 19C, and 310 frost-free days. Annual rainfall averages 1,926 millimeters.


Diecai Hill, Fubo Hill, Duxiu Peak, Nanxi Hill, Crescent Hill and Putuo Hill are the biggest attraction for tourists when they make a tour of the city. The Li River is in the region of Guilin. Elephant Hill, Chuanshan Hill, Pagoda Hill, Qifengzhen Peak Forest, Crown Cave, Painted Cliff, Xingping Town and Green Lotus Peak are the extraordinary scenic spots along the river. Grotesque caves can be found in all the Guilin hills. Reed Flute cave, Seven-Star Cave and Chuanshan Hill are honored as "Palaces of Nature's Art". Stalagmites in the caves present colorful pictures.Linking the waters of the Xiang and Li Rivers, the Ling Canal in Xingan County, north of Guilin, is a great ancient water conservancy project in Chinese history. It was built over 2000 years ago during the reign of the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty.
