Wave Subduing Hill
China, an East Asian country is one of the world’s oldest civilizations. It has a vast cultural history of more than five thousand years and an outstanding natural beauty. On the other hand, this country has remained a comparatively isolated and secluded one, and being a land of mystery, this country is not known to the western half of the world. However, China is rapidly developing and has grown in the phase of modernization, with an immense speed and is also welcoming the outer world to interact and do business with them.
Wave Subduing Hill is situated on the western bank of the Li River and visitors can take pleasure in a fine view of Guilin from the peak of Wave Subduing Hill. On the hill is a temple apparently founded by the Tang dynasty general Fubo Jingjun. He was known as the wave subduing general and the hill is believed to be named after him. On the way up the hill you can still discover remnants of the old temple including a two ton bell and an enormous cooking pot.
This appeal is actually an integrative garden park in the city center with a handsome hill, exclusive mountain caves and elegant garden rock formations. Gracefully standing on the riverside, Wave-Subduing Hill also known as Fubo Hill has its half standing in the river and the other half perching on land. The river waters are blocked by the hill and eddied, creating wavelets, therefore the name Subduing Wave Hill that literally means the waters have been subdued by the hill.
Wave Subduing Hill is definitely one of the popular tourist attractions in China. It is worth paying a visit while touring the country. This place will leave a pleasing and unforgettable memory and justify the proud cultural tradition of China.
