Elephant Trunk Hill Park is a lovely place to visit even on a wetter day. The park meanders around much of the lake, and while it can be very busy in places, it is not hard to find peace and quiet. The views from the top are fantastic, and the views of the main rock from across the lake are lovely. Not worth a specific trip, but definitely a nice extra if you are in or near Guilin.#guilin #Elephant #parks #lakes
