Recommendations for Bohol Experience Activities
Explanation on the formation of the Chocolate Mountains on the top of the mountain. It turns out that the original Chocolate Mountains were corals on the seabed. After years of crustal changes, they slowly rose to the land. Because I visited in spring in January, the mountains were covered with green grass, so I saw them. This is the green version of the Chocolate Hills. In the dry season, the lack of rain and the hot sun will dry out the green grass and turn it into chocolate color. So if you want to see the chocolate-colored Chocolate Hills It would be best to wait until April before coming.
Taking pictures from the top of Chocolate Mountain, I climbed so high without even realizing it! The red roof is the visitor center and some small shops at the foot of the mountain.
There is a restaurant and several souvenir shops at the foot of the mountain, where you can take a quick look while waiting for the bus.
Before leaving, don't forget to check in and take pictures with "I LOVE CHOCOLATE HILLS"!
