Bohol's finest and most popular tourist attraction is no other than the CHOCOLATE HILLS.
Chocolate Hills (which of course are not really made from chocolates) are thought to have formed due to weathering of marine limestone. They only appear chocolaty during summer or hot season when the green grasses growing on them wither and the brown soil gets exposed. This is how Chocolate Hills got its name. Trees actually grow at the base.
There are more than a thousand hills covering 50 square kilometers lot.These cone -hill structures are sometimes labelled as "breasts or tummies of pregnant women". These wonders stand 30 meters to 120 meters from the ground. You can actually have a full view of these land formations when you go to the viewing deck of Chocolate Hills Complex.
