Moon Hill (Yueliang Shan) is one of Yangshuo's best attractions because
of its fantastic views from the top. There is a hole in its peak in the
shape of a half moon through which the sky can be seen. Hence the name. Moon
Hill Village can also be seen from
Moon Hill's peak. Between the village and Moon Hill, stands a Banyan tree.
Legend has it that it was planted in the Jin Dynasty, about 1,500 years
ago.
On
the back from Moon Hill, it is great fun to explore the nearby caves,
such as the Black Buddha New Water Caves and the Black Dragon Caves.
