Guilin - Seven Star Park Qixing Gongyuan

Seven Star Park lies in the east of the town. It covers an area of 40ha/100acres, making it Guilin's largest public park, and derives its name from its seven hills, the layout of which is similar to that of the stars in the Great Bear constellation. At the entrance will be found the Bridge of Flowers (Huaqiao) from the Song period (960-1279). The four northernmost hills, the Putuoshan, contain a number of caves, including Seven Star Cave. The three southern peaks form the Yueshan Hills. The woods containing stone inscriptions, mostly from the Song period, will be found interesting.
