Chocolate Hills

The chocolate Hills are most likely the most popular tourist attraction in Bohol. They are perfectly formed hills, 30 and 50 metres high and look like something your child may draw if asked. There are about 1268 hills. They get the name 'chocolate' due to the end of the dry season they turn chocolatly brown (because of
rain), during the dry season they are caked in lush
green grass.

The way these beautiful hills are formed is still
unknown till this day. Geologists have yet full
discovered how they where formed. The most realistic theory is that
they were created when land was
underwater and when it became dry land the weather erroded the limestone on top of the impermeable layer
of clay (The Hills).
