ArabiaWeather.com - The Chocolate Range in the Philippines is considered one of the strangest geological features around the world, as it consists of more than 1,700 similar hills in a pyramid-like shape, which are actually limestone rocks covered with grasses.

These hills take on a green color most days of the year, but they acquire a brown color during the dry period, which led to their name as the Chocolate Hills in relation to that color.

And these hills are considered, according to some parties, one of the natural wonders of the world, and they are a place that attracts many tourists from around the world, which constituted a source of livelihood for the people of the region who provide their services to the tourist groups that visit this place.

It is advised when visiting these hills to wear long shoes, due to the large ant settlement of this place, which exposes some tourists to painful stings in the feet.
