Rooster Fighting Hill

Not far from Elephant Trunk Hill stand two Rooster-like hills facing each other across the river, posing a fighting gesture. The hill on east bank is Chuanshan Hill (Tunnel Hill), resembling a rooster open wide its eyes and hold up its long tail, while the west one, looking like a Rooster with its highly lifted crest, is Gamecock Hill. People call them "Rooster Fighting Hill".

 
The best place to watch the Rooster Fighting Hill is near Iron Bridge which is located south of Jingping Hill. Looking back from there, the fighting gesture of these two roosters distinctly jumps into your eyes. Vivid and lifelike, it is listed as one of the ten marvelous spectacles in Li River.
