On the morning of January 25, the reporter learned from the press conference of the Guilin Elephant Trunk Hill Scenic Spot held by the Guilin Municipal Government that starting from New Year's Eve (January 31) in 2022, the Elephant Trunk Hill will be officially opened for free.

After the free opening, the spot will strengthen its construction, improve its service capabilities, make every effort to promote the upgrading and development, strive to build it into the first-choice national destination for tourist, and help Guilin to build a world-class tourist city.
The Beautiful Scenery of Elephant Trunk Hill
Elephant Trunk Hill is the badge of Guilin city and a symbol of Guilin tourism. Lies on the conjunction of the Li River and the Peach Blossom River, it shapes like a giant elephant. There is a vast arch cave with an area of about 150 square meters between the trunk and legs. The river passes through the hole, which resembles a full moon floating on the water, hence people name the scenery as Moon over Water.
The scenery of Moon over Water on the west bank of Li River is opposite to the Lunar Rock on the east bank. One floats in the water and the other hangs in the sky, which forms a wonder of Two Moons on Li River.
During the Labor Day Holiday last year in 2021, the Elephant Trunk Hill was once open for free, which attracted tourists from all over the country. At the same time, the elephant-trunk-hill-shaped ice cream had become more and more popular among tourists.
