Folded Brocade Hill (Diecai Shan) is one of Guilin's most climbable peaks situated very close to the city center in the northeast of Guilin, near the Li River. 

Towering over Li River's west bank, the name is derived from its queer-looking rocks, which are broken horizontally. The hackled rock formation with patterns that strongly suggest a great pile of folded colorful brocade has acquired the present name for the hill. The thin shape of the hill and lush greenery around make it resemble brocaded fabric. 

Folded Brocade Hill consists of Yueshan Hill, Look-on-All-Direction Hill, Crane Peak and Bright Moon Peak. Countless Chinese character inscriptions decorate the stonesides of the hill and the area around the path leading to the top. The Wind Cave runs from north to south halfway up the hill, with a cool breeze blows inside it in every season. It features 90 Buddha images of the Tang and Song dynasties, as well as dozens of ancient stone carvings. After passing through the Wind Cave, you come to the Face-the -Cloud Pavilion, Over-the-River Pavilion, and finally the summit of Bright moon Peak, where Catch-the -Cloud Pavilion commands a splendid view of tourist attraction that was already famous back in the Tang Dynasty, or some 1,000 years ago. Solitary Beauty Peak and Wave-subduing Hill can be seen from Folded Brocade Hill.
