The Chocolate Hills remained unscathed even after a strong earthquake shook the province of Bohol and nearby islands in central Philippines on October 2013. You might wonder why these perfectly-shaped hills were named “Chocolate Hills” when they are actually greenish. You can’t find any cocoa plantations around either. So why “chocolate”? During the rainy season (June-February), the hills are covered with green grass but it turns brown when the dry season starts (March-May), thus the name.
