Diecai Hill

Diecai Hill commands a high vantage point, offering a panoramic view of all Guilin. One of its four peaks, Bright Moon Peak, is the highest in the urban area, with a relative height of 73 meters. The mountain is formed by layers of multicolored rocks piled up like pearls and jade, hence its name Diecai Hill (Folded Brocade Hill). Halfway up the hill, there is a unique Wind Cave, housing 178 stone carvings and 24 niches with 98 cliffside statues. Notable inscriptions include Marshal Chen Yi's line "Willing to be a Guilin native, not an immortal" and Qing Dynasty official Guo Sijing's "Longevity" character. As the saying goes, passing through the Wind Cave lets you live past 99, and climbing Diecai Hill lets you live past 130. Reaching the summit offers a 360-degree bird's-eye view of Guilin, allowing you to experience the essence of where mountains and rivers converge. The combination of natural scenery and cultural heritage showcases the best of Guilin.
