The legend tells us a story worthy of a fantasy novel, but the truth is nothing particularly glamorous. Indeed, the ‘chocolate hills’ exist thanks to a rare geological formation which is impossible to explain. It is believed to be a cluster of coral and shell layers, dating back about two million years, which emerged on the surface through the process of plate tectonics.

An incredible place to discover as soon as possible.
