Elephant Trunk Hill
象鼻山
See Guilin’s landmark arch beside the water in the Two Rivers and Four Lakes scenic area.
Getting there
The park is by the Li River in central Guilin. Search 象鼻山景区 and use the marked gate closest to your starting point.
Admission
Check current visitor registration or reservation at the gate even if regular access is free. Bring ID if you reserve under your name.
What to see
Find a clear angle on the rock arch by the river. Move along the bank to see how the shape changes from different viewpoints.
Plan your visit
Combine this with a city-center walk. Keep time for a separate Li River trip if you want to see the broader karst landscape.
For the classic view, look across the water toward the rock arch. Allow an hour for paths and photographs, then continue along the city waterfront.
