World’s Greatest Attractions Hi I’m Naomi and I’m very excited to show you the World’s Greatest Attractions. Hundreds of the hills fill the horizon, symmetrical and in the dry season, chocolate- colored. Unfortunately, these limestone hills are not as tasty as the chocolate kisses that inspired their name. The name comes from the deep brown color of the dried grass in summer. Besides their unusual color, the hills are interesting for their regular and symmetric shape. There are approximately 1500 of these remarkable hills in the Bohol province of the Phillippines. There are several bizarre legends about the origins of these hills, all involving giants. Thank you for watching our travel video series. See you next time.
