Xiangshan Scenic Area, located in Guilin, Guangxi, is the city emblem of Guilin. In 21, 4 yuan, a ticket for Xiangshan, is a must-see spot for Guilin. Very representative. To go to Elephant Trunk Mountain, you can climb the mountain to see the Pu Xian Tower, see Guanyin and visit lover island. When there is a shortage of water, you can go down to the Lijiang River near Elephant Trunk Mountain and go to Yunfeng Temple to see the cannons left by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Xiangshan Xiangshan is located on the right bank of Lijiang River in the southeast of Guilin. It is named after the elephant standing by the river and stretching its nose to absorb water. It is the symbol of Guilin. Climb the stairs from Shanxi and you can reach the elephant back. There is an elephant eye stone on the mountain, and there is a pair of elephant eyes on the left and right, from the bottom of the right eye to the Antarctic cave, which says that the Antarctic cave is carved on the cave wall. A few more steps to the Shuiyue Cave, which is 1 meter high and 2 meters deep, looks like a half moon, and its reflection falls into the water, just like a full moon. At night, the bright moon rises and the scenery is so beautiful. In the Song Dynasty, a tourist named Chu Shi in Jibei wrote this quatrain, entitled Shui Yue: There is a bright moon underwater, and the bright moon floats on the water. If the water does not flow in the middle of the month, it will still flow in the middle of the month. There are more than 5 stone carvings in Xiangshan Mountain, mostly carved on the cliff walls inside and outside Shuiyue Cave, among which the famous ones are Zhang Xiaoxiang's Chaoyang Pavilion, Fan Chengda's Fu Shui Yue Cave Inscription and Lu You's Poetry Ceremony. Climb the stairs to the top of the mountain, and an ancient brick tower stands on the top of the mountain. Seen from a distance, it looks like a hilt inserted on the elephant's back and a simple vase, so it is called hilt tower and vase tower. This tower was built in the Ming Dynasty and is 13 meters high. Mount Sumi is a double octagon carved with the image of Bodhisattva Samantabhadra. It is named Pu Xian Tower.

There is a proverb called Guilin's landscape is the best in the world. Indeed, Guilin has many famous scenic spots. But I think the most interesting place is Elephant Trunk Hill. Why do I like Elephant Trunk Mountain best? Because I think Elephant Trunk Hill is amazing and interesting. When I was a child, I thought Elephant Trunk Hill was built artificially. Later, my mother told me that it was the work of the wind. I asked with a grain of salt: Can Feng still be an architect? Now I know that Zhen Feng can be an architect! I think it is not only magical and interesting, but also beautiful. In the winter morning, the fog permeates around Elephant Trunk Mountain, like an elephant god guarding a fairyland, and like a naughty elephant playing in the river without telling his mother! At noon, the sun is shining, and the whole Elephant Trunk Mountain is presented to tourists. The sun shines on the river, which is bright and sparkling. Elephant trunk mountain is as beautiful as being surrounded by colorful bubbles. At night, beautiful lights are shining around Elephant Trunk Mountain, as if covered with a coat of light. It is so beautiful! Elephant trunk mountain is amazing and interesting. I really want to travel to Elephant Trunk Mountain again!
