This ingenious construction makes best use of the scare arable land and water resources in the mountainous area. There are about 66 square kilometers terraced fields in southeast of Longsheng. The Terraces were first built in the Yuan dynasty and completed in the Qing dynasty by the Zhuang people.
Elephant Trunk Hill
Elephant Trunk Hill is regarded as the symbol of Guilin landscape. Originally named “Li Hill”, “Yi Hill” and “Chenshui Hill”, the hill has a history of 3.6 hundred million years. Resembling an elephant leisurely sucking water from the river with its long trunk, this hill is famous as Elephant Trunk Hill for hundreds of years.
With an elevation of 200m, the hill towers 55m above the water, measuring 108m in length and 100m in width. Between the trunk and the legs of the elephant is a cave, in the shape of a full moon, penetrating the hill from side to side. People named it “Moon-over-Water Cave”. When the waters wave and the moonlight gleams, the scene is exceedingly enchanting. On the walls in and around this cave, over 70 inscriptions from the Tang and Song dynasties were found, praising the beauty of hills and waters nearby.
