Wave Subduing Hill
Wave Subduing Hill, yet another of Guilin's
karst mountains, has one of the most unique and interesting
shapes of all the hills around here and contains many interesting
sights. The mountain itself resembles a wave reaching up
to the sky and descending down into the river.
The sights on the hill include a temple
to the Wave Subduing General (Fubo Jiangjun), after whom
the hill is named. Elsewhere on the hill, Returned Pearl
Cave and Thousand Buddhas Cave are also great places to
see some Tang and Song Buddhist statues. Lastly, the Wave
Listening Pavilion, on the southeast cliff of Fuboshan,
is a great place to view the surrounding area. Built in
1964, while not ancient, the Pavilion is a great place to
relax and take in the natural beauty of the Guilin area.
