Introduction
Fubo Hill is a popular hill to climb for a grand view above Guilin and the surrounding countryside. Like many of the limestone peaks in this area, it has a cave. Legend has it that the Returned Pearl Cave was once home to a dragon guarding a huge pearl. The pearl was stolen when the dragon fell asleep, but was later returned by the remorseful thief. The hill is also sacred to Buddhists because of the inscribed giant bronze bell flanked by ancient small shrines.
