Moon Hill
Moon Hill is a mountain with a natural arch just outside of Yangshuo in southern China. It is named for a wide almost perfect semicircular hole in the hill. The hole is approximately 50 meters wide and 50 meters tall. It is all that remains of what was once a limestone cave.
The area is known for its karst formations and is made up of compact carbonate rocks which became uplifted and transformed by erosion. The rocks started out as sea floor sediments and were pushed up during the collision of India with Asia. Afterwards, the warm and wet Monsoon climate of southern China created the well-known karst formations we can see today. The naturally-occurring acid rains of Yangshuo’s subtropical climate caused the dissolution of limestone and caused caves and sinkholes to form.
Moon Hill has a concrete path passing through the arch and several rock climbing routes. It also offers great panoramic views of the surrounding knobby karst hills found throughout the region.

So I looked up Moon Hill after my friend in the GC told me about it.
The music is so relaxing/chill/soothing! I feel like it’s perfect for when I’m feeling overstimulated or in my head and need to find a quiet place to come down.
P.S. I feel so dumb for posting the knuckle tat post last night and then finding out about the side project this morning after it’s already reached quite a few people. 🤦🏻♀️
